The Backup History tab for Dynamics provides a comprehensive overview of all backups in a service. View backup statuses, understand different backup types, and efficiently filter and export data for continuous data integrity and compliance.
Backup Types
Synthetic Full Backup: An incremental backup that merges with previous full or synthetic full backups to create an updated full backup. This backup reduces run time and API consumption, while maintaining all the benefits of a full backup.
Full Backup: A backup that copies the entire set of sObject data. While this backup takes longer than a synthetic full backup, done periodically, it ensures a high level of data integrity.
The Backup History Tab
The Backup History tab displays a comprehensive list of backups, including those with incomplete file downloads due to API limitations or errors. You can:
- Search for the objects. As you type, the options automatically filter.
- Filter the list by selecting: All, Aborted, Label, Tag, or Status.
- Export the backup list as a CSV file. The list includes these columns:
Column Name Description Type The type of backup performed: synthetic full backup or full backup (see detailed descriptions below). Started At The date and time the backup was initiated. Tag Tags assigned to the backup. Label Labels assigned to the backup by the system or user. Data Duration The total time taken to backup the Data. Size The size of the backup.
