# Data Backup
|
|
|
|
:warning: Since v2.4.0 you can use the [EventManager](https://sftpgo.github.io/latest/eventmanager/) to schedule backups.
|
|
|
|
The `backup` example script shows how to use the SFTPGo REST API to backup your data.
|
|
|
|
The script is written in Python and has the following requirements:
|
|
|
|
- python3 or python2
|
|
- python [Requests](https://requests.readthedocs.io/en/master/) module
|
|
|
|
The provided example tries to connect to an SFTPGo instance running on `127.0.0.1:8080` using the following credentials:
|
|
|
|
- username: `admin`
|
|
- password: `password`
|
|
|
|
and, if you execute it daily, it saves a different backup file for each day of the week. The backups will be saved within the configured `backups_path`.
|
|
|
|
Please edit the script according to your needs.
