A snapshot created from a base can be restored as a new base at any time. Before you restore a snapshot, you can first display it in a separate view. In this way, you can always find out in advance exactly what the base looked like at the time it was saved.

There are two different ways to restore a snapshot:

  1. Restore a snapshot from the home page
  2. Restore a snapshot within a base

Restore snapshot on the start page

  1. Switch to the SeaTable home page.
  2. Move the mouse over the desired base and click on the three dots.
  3. Click Snapshots.
  4. Select any snapshot and click Restore.
  5. Give the snapshot a name and confirm your entry.

Restore snapshot in the base

  1. Click on versions at the top right of the base options.
  2. Click on Snapshots in the drop-down menu that opens.
  3. Select any snapshot and click on the three dots on the right.
  4. Click Restore.
  5. Give the snapshot a name.
  6. Confirm with Submit.

If you have activated in a base, you can also restore a previous version of the big data storage when restoring snapshots in order to prevent unwanted data loss. To do this, click in the corresponding field in step 5 and select the version of the big data storage that is to be restored with the snapshot.
