Disabling Scheduled Backups and Archives

Required User Credentials

[Flosum User] - Backup & Archive license with App Settings permissions

Overview

You can disable scheduled backups and archives individually for each Salesforce Organization. By default, both are enabled. Scheduled backups and scheduled archives can be controlled separately. When set to Disabled, no system-scheduled or user-scheduled operations will run. This article shows you how to disable backups for an organization.

For simplicity, this article refers to backups and archives as "backups/archives." Since scheduled backups and scheduled archives can be disabled independently, you can choose to disable either one or both.
