The process of restoring specific attributes is identical for restoring on Cloud and on Data Center.
Besides restoring and migrating the objects, you can restore only specific attributes of the specific Object Types from the backup. To do so, during the restore process, select “Restore specific object attributes” on the Options step:
When this option is selected, all other options will be disabled! If the corresponding Object Type is deleted from the target schema, the Object Type should be restored.
This feature is available for the backups made after April 23, 2024. For the backups made before the date, this option will be disabled.
After selecting the option, you will see the list of the Object Types in the backup with the number of objects for each object type:
Click the arrow icon to expand the Parent Object Type and see the Child Object Types. You can also expand/collapse all the Object Types by clicking the “two arrows“ icon in the top right corner of the list:
When you click the Object Type, you will see the corresponding attributes in the right part of the window:
The number along the attribute represents the attribute ID
When you select the attribute(s) to restore, you will see the blue checkmark and the number of the selected attributes:
You can select all or clear all the selected attributes by clicking Select all or Clear all.
If the Parent Object Type is passes the attributes to the child object types, you will see the corresponding message after selecting such an object type:
For the child objects, that receive the attributes from the parent, the attributes will be shown but disabled. You will see the corresponding message to go to the parent object type to select such attributes for restoration:
You can restore the attributes for all the objects in the object type or only in the specific objects by filtering them with AQL. To do so, click the AQL filter button and fill in the AQL in the popup:
When you click the “Update filter“ button, you will get back to the object types and attributes list and a blue checkmark on the “AQL filter” button indicates that the AQL is entered.
