Doesn't Airtable back up my data?
Airtable keeps its own servers safe, keeps deleted records for 7 days, and can restore a whole base from a snapshot, as a new base. ProBackup restores just the record, field or table that went wrong, from any day in your plan's history.

How ProBackup compares to other Airtable backup tools
On2Air shows a backup log with base, table and record counts; the records themselves are only in the exported files, and it restores whole tables or bases into new tables. ProBackup lets you browse every base, table and record by day, and restore anything from one comment to a whole table. The comparison lists On2Air's own sources, with the date we checked.

Frequently asked questions

Visit the help centerWhat Airtable data is backed up?
The following Airtable data is backed up: tables, records, comments, attachments, fields (including formulas) and automations, organised by base. Views, forms and interfaces are not backed up.
How does restore work for Airtable?
When restoring an Airtable record, you have two options: create a new record from your backup, leaving all existing data untouched, or overwrite the existing record by selecting only the fields you want to update. A record restored as new gets its comments and files back too. A table is restored as a new table with its records, in the same base (or in a base called ProBackupRestore if the original base is gone). A field is restored as a new field, with its values filled back in. Automations come back as a draft, switched off, in their original base. Computed fields (formula, rollup, lookup, count and similar) can't be created through Airtable's API, so a restore skips them.
Can I restore an Airtable record deleted more than 7 days ago?
Yes, as long as it was in a ProBackup snapshot before it was deleted. It stays in your backup for your plan's history: 6 months on Plus, 2 years on Pro, 4 years on Premium. It comes back as a new record, with its comments.
Does ProBackup back up Airtable automations?
Yes. Each automation's trigger and steps are backed up every day. A restore recreates it as a draft, switched off, in its original base, so you can check it before you turn it on. Airtable doesn't let apps create automations that contain a Script action, so those can't be restored.
Which Airtable fields can't be restored?
Computed fields: formula, rollup, count, lookup, AI text, created and last-modified time or by, autonumber and button. Airtable's API can't create them. ProBackup backs up their values, and a restore skips them.
How safe is my data?
The backups and the access tokens are secured with the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) using a 256-bit encryption key. Applying the best practices of encryption methods, we use a different initialisation vector for every record, meaning it is virtually impossible to extract the data via reverse engineering.
Do I need a license for each team member?
No, you only need one ProBackup license to back up your team's data. The pricing model is not based on the number of seats – instead you pay to back up your own account and the connected accounts.
Can I build this myself?
You can. With an AI coding tool, a script that exports your data every night is a weekend project. The hard part comes after that: keeping it working when the app's API changes, storing the copies encrypted and away from the app, noticing when a run quietly misses data, and restoring, which means rebuilding records with their comments, files and links in the right place without overwriting today's work. ProBackup does that for 20+ apps. It keeps a version of every record each day it changes, emails you when a backup stops running, checks the APIs of its largest integrations against known-good responses every week, is SOC 2 Type II audited, and lets you browse any day and restore it.
