Do you want to get a back up of your RowShare data? We will show you how to do it with Zapier, a tool that allows you to connect RowShare with 1,000+ apps to automate tasks.
Say one of your table contributors accidentally (or intentionally) deleted data from your table, with Zapier, you can access that deleted information easily.
It is just a simple way to create a copy of a table, which you can later use in the form of a backup. The new table will be created with the column, names and types as defined in the referred table.
How It Works
Firstly, you need to create a copy of the table that you want to back up. For example, you want to have a backup of Table A, copy that Table A and name it Table A Backup. Then, once you have both of your tables, let’s make a Zap! With Zapier, every time anyone deletes data from your table, you can access the deleted data in the backup table.Let’s Make A Zap
In Zapier, there are action and trigger. A trigger is when a row is added or modified in a RowShare table, and as an action, a new row will be added to another RowShare table. Have a look at this Zap and let us guide you how to do it step by step!RowShare Trigger
