## Overview
|
|
|
|
In CVAT you can backup tasks and projects.
|
|
This can be used to backup a task or project on your PC or to transfer to another server.
|
|
|
|
## Create backup
|
|
|
|
To backup a task or project, open the action menu and select `Backup Task` or `Backup Project`.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
You can backup a project or a task locally on your PC or using an [attached cloud storage](/docs/manual/basics/attach-cloud-storage/).
|
|
|
|
(Optional) Specify the name in the `Custom name` text field for backup, otherwise the file of backup name
|
|
will be given by the mask `project_<project_name>_backup_<date>_<time>.zip` for the projects
|
|
and `task_<task_name>_backup_<date>_<time>.zip` for the tasks.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
If you want to save a backup to a specific [attached cloud storage](/docs/manual/basics/attach-cloud-storage/),
|
|
you should additionally turn off the switch `Use default settings`, select the `Cloud storage` value
|
|
in the `Target storage` and select this storage in the list of the attached cloud storages.
|
|
|
|
## Create backup APIs
|
|
|
|
- endpoints:
|
|
- `/tasks/{id}/backup`
|
|
- `/projects/{id}/backup`
|
|
- method: `GET`
|
|
- responses: 202, 201 with zip archive payload
|
|
|
|
### Upload backup APIs
|
|
|
|
- endpoints:
|
|
- `/api/tasks/backup`
|
|
- `/api/projects/backup`
|
|
- method: `POST`
|
|
- Content-Type: `multipart/form-data`
|
|
- responses: 202, 201 with json payload
|
|
|
|
## Create from backup
|
|
|
|
To create a task or project from a backup, go to the tasks or projects page,
|
|
click the `Create from backup` button and select the archive you need.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
As a result, you'll get a task containing data, parameters, and annotations of
|
|
the previously exported task.
|
|
|
|
## Backup file structure
|
|
|
|
As a result, you'll get a zip archive containing data,
|
|
task or project and task specification and annotations with the following structure:
|
|
|
|
{{< tabpane >}}
|
|
{{< tab header="Task Backup Structure" >}}
|
|
.
|
|

|
|

|
|
├── task.json
|
|
└── annotations.json
|
|
{{< /tab >}}
|
|
{{< tab header="Project Backup Structure" >}}
|
|
.
