How to restore data to Trello

In this article, we will review how to restore data from the created backup. 

There are two pages where you can launch the restore process, Operation Details and Data Protection. 

Data Protection page allows quickly restoring the required board. It is also possible to open the full backup summary and select more data to restore. 

To launch the restoration of a single board, perform the following: 

1. Open the Data Protection page and select the board/workspace you need to restore right now. 

You can select to review all backups of the boards/workspaces/members on the page or select to review only Completed or Failed backups using the buttons at the bottom of this section. 

Use the date range option to select the required date for the state in which you need to restore the board. Use the Search option to find the needed Board/Workspace/Member by name. Also, you can sort the columns by Project title or the Workspace. 

Click on the completed backup status of the required board on the right, the Backup Summary page will be opened. You can review the information for the selected backup of a single board and restore it at once by clicking the Restore button. 

Choose the restore parameters and click the Restore Now button. 

To select more data for restore click the Full Backup Summary option. 

Review the summary for the backup and click the Restore button at the bottom. 

The Restore page will be opened where you can select what data you need to restore from this backup. 

Click on the pencil-like button next to each element to select data.

Select the restore mode

With the 'Restore a copy..' mode selected a copy of the board will be created with the same 'Board name and backup date'. 

With the ‘Merge with an existing board or create new if does not exist’ restore mode the existing board will be found by name and ID, and in case it is not found, a new board is created from the backup. 

In case an existing board is found by the same ID and Name, the board data is updated, merging with the data from the backup during the restore operation. 

If the ‘Delete board before restore’ restore mode is selected, the existing board found by name and ID will be deleted and a new board created from the backup. 

When the data is selected, click the Restore Now button. 

Operation Details page allows you to open the full backup summary at once and select the required data for restore. Use filters on the page to quickly find the required backup operation. 

Click on the completed backup operation to open its summary. Click Restore

Clicking on the pencil-like buttons next to each element select the required boards, and workspaces for restore and restore mode. Click the Restore Now button. 

The restore operation will be launched at once and will appear on the Operation Details page where you can check its status and progress
