Enhancement request: ability for customer to automatically schedule model backups. Very common issue where data is lost either from changing Prod List to Non-Prod or vice versa or developer

A changes formulas that effect Prod, etc. A one time setup preserves data and reduces reliance on humans to backup.

 

The lower the complexity the better. API and Anaplan Connect functionality as an option however the main audience is the Anaplan admin so it should be extremely user friendly.

 

Model Settings --> Select Model --> Set Archiving intervals (Calendar or every 2 weeks etc) --> Done

 

The Archive name will have a timestamp as prefix + Model Name.

    Any updates on this? 

    It's been very inconvenient do not have a way to schedule a Copy&Archive action in Anaplan. Clients always ask a daily backup...

    I understand we still have a few options like roll back history or run Copy&Archive manually, but it's still not the best option in a few cases.

    I hope we have it included on the next roadmap.

    Agree, @Miran  can you please review the duplicate topics and consolidate? It looks like there are more than 80 people supporting this across separate topics.

    Agree, manually backing up daily is not a reasonable request for clients to complete
