Bundles and Backups are discussed in Motive Academy here.

Create a Backup

These steps will allow you to create a backup file of your Storyflow Project that you can then save to your computer for a secure backup, or you can then take this Backup and create a duplicate copy in a new Project.

  1. Open the Storyflow Project

  2. Go to the “Backups” tab at the top of the page

  3. Give the Backup a name

  4. Add an optional Description

  5. Click “Back Up”

Do not click Backup multiple times!  Give it at least five minutes and then refresh and see if it is in the list on the right.  

Once complete, you will see the Backup published on the right hand side of the page.

Download the Backup

To download the Backup to your computer, click the ellipses to the right of the file name and choose “Download”.

Restore From a Backup

Only individuals with the Admin Permission for the Workspace you are in may do Restores (see this article).

Once you have a copy of the Backup file, you can duplicate the Scenario in a new Project.

  3. Click “Restore”

  4. Attach the file you previously downloaded per the instructions

Once complete, you will see the Backup Restored by navigating to the Home Dashboard in Storyflow and looking at the Scripts/Catalogs/etc.
