How to Use the Add-On

  1. Enter API Token:

    • Begin by logging in as an administrator to your Jira instance.

    • Access the Easy Backup add-on and enter your API token for authentication. This token serves as a secure identifier for backup operations.

  2. Schedule a Backup:

    • Specify your preferred day and time for automated backup creation.

    • The add-on provides a simple and straightforward scheduling interface where you can select the frequency of backups and the specific days and times.

  3. Schedule Backups for Once a Week:

    • If you require weekly backups, configure the add-on to generate backups at a specific day and time each week. This ensures consistent data protection without manual intervention.

  4. Schedule Backups for Twice a Week:

    • For organizations with heightened data protection needs, Easy Backup allows you to schedule backups twice a week. Select two separate days and times for backup generation to meet your requirements.
