Backup health, item counts and how long snapshots are kept
How it works

Three steps.

  1. 1

    The problem

    The home screen shows the last backup, what it contains, and whether snapshots are kept for 7, 30 or 90 days.

  2. 2

    What the app does

    A preview compares the current value with the backup. It only reads Shopify, so nothing is written yet.

  3. 3

    The result

    Restore the selected field, or bring back a deleted item that is still in a snapshot.

Who it is for: Any Shopify store.

The problem

A bad edit is hard to undo field by field

One import or edit can change a title, a collection order, a menu or a page, and Shopify does not keep a copy you can put back one field at a time.

  • An edit or import changes a product, page or menu and there is no copy to compare
  • Putting the whole item back when only one field was wrong
  • A deleted product with no snapshot to restore it from
How MakeBackup solves it

MakeBackup keeps a nightly copy of products, variants, metafields, inventory quantities, collections (including manual sort order), menus, pages, blogs, articles and URL redirects. Orders and customers are not stored. Nightly backups run around 03:15 UTC, or press Back up now. Keep snapshots for 7, 30 or 90 days. Restore one item or one field after a preview that only reads Shopify, up to 25 items per restore. Deleted products and collections can be brought back from a snapshot that still contains them. Download any backup as JSON or CSV.
