Meilisearch Cloud automatically backs up your project data. Backups protect against accidental data loss and allow you to restore a project to a previous state.

Default backup schedule

SettingDefault
FrequencyOnce per week
Backups retained2 (the two most recent)
Scheduled dayBased on the day the project was created
The backup window is automatically set when you create a project. Older backups are discarded as new ones are created, so only the two most recent backups are kept at any time.

Restoring from a backup

To restore your project from a backup, contact support@meilisearch.com with your project name and the date you want to restore to.

Enterprise backup customization

Enterprise customers can fully customize their backup configuration:
  • Frequency: daily, multiple times per day, or any custom schedule
  • Retention: keep more than 2 backups
  • Timing: choose the exact time backups run to avoid peak traffic periods
Contact sales@meilisearch.com to configure a custom backup policy for your project.
