System-Defined Default Backups
Each Salesforce org has two system-defined scheduled backup jobs: a Default Composite Backup and a Default Composite & Sync Deleted Backup. These backups are automatically scheduled to keep your org backed up, so you don't need to create your own scheduled backups. The system manages these jobs, and while they can’t be deleted, you do have some control over when the jobs are scheduled to run. The following articles explain in detail the difference between these backup jobs and how to edit them.
User-Defined Backups
The Backup & Archive app provides two types of backups: a full Composite Backup and a Templated Composite Backup. The Composite Backup allows you to back up all your data in a single step. The Templated Composite Backup provides the flexibility to select specific objects, data, and files for inclusion. Both options can be executed immediately or scheduled to run automatically at set intervals. The following articles explain in detail how to use these backups.
