Data Backup

⚠️ Since v2.4.0 you can use the 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 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.
