After enabling MainWP API Backups Extension, get into the “API Backups” menu item.

The “Backups” screen lists the Child Sites with Backups available.

Connect Hosting Provider

To connect to a hosting provider, go to “Settings” and choose whether your Child Site(s) are hosted on a Cloud Manager or VPS Provider.

From there, follow the on-screen instructions to obtain your API key and connect to your respective hosting provider.

Bulk Backup Child Sites

To perform bulk backups of your Child Sites, select the desired sites on the Backups screen and click the “Backup Selected Sites” button. This saves you time and streamlines the backup process for multiple sites at once.

Individual Site Backup

On the “Backups” screen, you will see a list of your Child Sites, along with their respective hosting providers. To back up a specific Child Site, simply click on the three dots located on the right side of its row and then click on “Backup”.

The backup process may take a few minutes to complete, depending on the size of the Child Site and respective hosting provider.

Once the backup is completed, it will be displayed in the list with the Last Backup date and time, giving you peace of mind knowing that your data is securely backed up.

Restore Backup

To manage backups for a specific Child Site, locate the row for that site and click “Manage Backups” on the right-hand side. This will bring up a list of all available backups for that site.

Simply click the “Restore Backup” option next to the backup you wish to restore.

On the overview page of an individual Child Site, you will notice a new tab labeled “API Backups” where you will see a list of all available backups for the respective Child Site, giving you easy access to your backup data.

Backing up and restoring your Child Sites has never been easier with the MainWP API Backups Extension.
