01 / The starting point

A clear request.
A useful direction.

The current set of process definitions selected by your team

“Create a dated archive copy of each selected process definition and notify the responsible owner when the backup run finishes.”
An example request · Make it specific to your team.

02 / The work

5 tasks.
One useful outcome.

Collects selected process definitions, saves a separate copy of each in the team’s archive, and reports when the batch has finished.

  1. Choose the definitions to protect

    Use the team’s approved list of process definitions and confirm which are included in this backup run.

  2. Save a dated copy of each definition

    Keep each selected definition as its own archived copy so an owner can identify and retrieve it later.

  3. Preserve earlier versions

    Keep prior copies according to the archive’s version history and retention policy.

  4. Report the backup outcome

    Send the responsible owner a concise update when the batch finishes, and make any incomplete result visible.

  5. Check recovery readiness

    Have an owner periodically retrieve sample copies and confirm they are complete enough for recovery.

03 / The result

Something useful.
Something to build on.

A set of archived copies and a completion update for the owner to review.

Archive process definitions for recovery

Security · Example outcome

The handoff

A set of archived copies and a completion update for the owner to review.

Keep in mind

A completion update does not confirm that every copy can be restored. Restrict archive access and have an owner periodically verify that the saved copies are complete and usable.

04 / Make it yours

Set the brief.
Set the standard.

A few choices shape the work around your team.

Define backup coverage

List the process definitions to protect and assign an owner for keeping that list current.

Choose a restricted archive

Select an archive with access limited to authorized maintainers and a retention period that fits your recovery needs.

Assign backup and recovery owners

Choose who receives completion updates, investigates incomplete runs, and verifies that archived copies can be restored.

Set the schedule and retention rules

Agree how often copies are saved, how older versions are retained, and how frequently recovery checks take place.

Keep exploring

Review and retain automation backups

Create dated copies of team automation records on a regular schedule and manage older copies under an approved retention policy.
