Offline Local Backup?

[John_Carr]

Whilst a fan of online apps and data, the paranoid in me wonders what I would do if your website goes down or gets compromised. Is there an easy way to backup my bases for local storage?

[Jeremy_Oglesby]

No, this has not been implemented yet. (just giving you a literal answer to that question - I don’t know why it’s not implemented or whether it is in the works or not)

[Susan_Gertz1]

I tried the free version, and it backed up my base once but did not continue to back it up daily. I can’t see how to make it continue backing up.

Another vote for local backups.

@Victoria_Hay — Any update on approximately when this feature will be implemented? I’ve seen comments from quite a few people who would love to start using Airtable…and lack of support for local backups is the only thing holding them back.

Hey all, as Airtable/Zapier experts (not directly associated with Airtable or Zapier) we built a way to do external backups for Airtable automatically, to address this issue directly.

If backups are a priority for you, check out the show and tell here: How to set up automatic external backups for Airtable in 20 minutes

3 Years later and still no offline access or local storage backup capability? Has anyone heard from the Airtable team on this?

[Phill_Dettman]

yes please me too. absolutely need a way to export my entire base into something i can use offline… my entire business runs from Airtable too. that makes my knees wobble slightly… especially as Airtable was just down for a few minutes… please add this soon, we’ll love you forever… promise :winking_face:
