Automated local backup for BIMcloud SaaS projects.
FUNCTION
WHAT IT DOES
Creates scheduled local backups of BIMcloud SaaS content used in Archicad
SYSTEM
HOW IT WORKS
The tool connects to BIMcloud SaaS using an AC Collaborate account, targets a local storage path, and runs backups based on a defined date, time, and frequency. A retention policy controls how long backup sets are kept.
INPUTS:
An AC Collaborate user account, the company BIMcloud URL, a local storage path, and a backup schedule defined by date, time, and frequency.
OUTPUTS:
Local copies of BIMcloud projects, Libraries, Attachments and Snapshots.
IMPACT
WHY IT MATTERS
It reduces downtime exposure, improves resilience, and supports continuity when cloud-hosted project data needs a local fallback.
USE CASE
An Archicad team using BIMcloud SaaS needs recurring local copies of active collaboration data to maintain continuity and reduce dependency on live cloud access.
