Your Hubitat Elevation hub automatically generates a backup every day at 2:15 am by default, in your local time zone. These backups are stored on the hub for 5 days. After making changes to your hub (adding devices, automation, etc.), it is a good idea to save a manual backup to your computer or the cloud.
Backup your hub
You may back up and restore files from a local disk anytime, but manual and automatic backup to the Hubitat cloud, including restoring from cloud backup and Z-Wave radio migration requires a Hub Protect subscription.
Select Settings in the sidebar of your hub.
Press the Backup and Restore card.
Select the Download button under the Create New Backup and Download Manually section (you can also download any of the automatic backups that have been stored). The backup will be saved on your computer, which can be uploaded later to restore your hub to a previous state if you desire.
You may set the time for when database maintenance and backup take place.
You may also set the frequency for automatic backups.
How to restore from backup
If you have made changes to your hub and want to go back to a previously saved backup, Hubitat Elevation makes it easy.
Select Settings in the sidebar of your hub.
Press the Backup and Restore card.
If you want to restore from one of the automatic backup files, select the Restore button for the database backup you want to restore to your hub.
If you want to restore the hub database from a backup file saved on your computer, select the Restore File button and choose the backup file you want to use.
Confirm the restore selection, and your Hubitat Elevation hub will return to the previously saved state.
