Download an Odoo backup (database / full)

Introduction #

Cloudpepper allows you to download a backup of your Odoo instance on the fly, at a high speed.

If you need to download the most recent version of your database (without creating a backup first), you can refer to our Export Database (Advanced) guide. However, this method is not recommended, as it requires enabling list_db, which can pose a security risk.

Requirements #

Before starting, make sure a backup of your instance exists. You can create one manually or rely on your scheduled backups.

Step 1. Access the Backups section #

There are two ways to access backups of your Odoo instance:

  • From the main Backups page: View and download all backups across your instances.
  • From your instance’s Backups tab: See and download backups specific to the selected instance.
