Back Up Association Data with Skyvia - Complete Guide

Backing Up Association Data with Skyvia

Overview

Association data refers to the relationships between records in a data source. For example, in a CRM system, association data might include the connections between customers, contacts, and accounts. Losing this data can lead to data inconsistencies and make it difficult to recover from data loss.

Skyvia Backup supports backing up association data, including record relations. When you create a backup, all data — including related records that form associations — is captured. This ensures that your association data is preserved and can be easily restored in case of data loss or migration.

How to Back Up Association Data

  1. Log in to your Skyvia account and navigate to the Backup section.
  2. Select the data source you want to back up, such as a CRM system.
  3. Choose the tables you want to include in the backup, including the associated tables.
  4. Configure the backup settings, such as the frequency.
  5. Start the backup process — Skyvia will capture all your association data.

Restoring Association Data

When restoring association data with Skyvia, you must select all the necessary related objects to preserve the associations. This ensures that your data is restored accurately and consistently.

Tips and Best Practices

  • Regularly back up your association data to prevent data loss. Use Skyvia's automated backup scheduling feature to save time and effort.
  • Verify your backups to ensure they are complete and accurate.
  • Consider using Skyvia's restore and data migration features to transfer your associated data if data was lost.

Note: If you work specifically with HubSpot and need a more focused backup solution, you can also consider SkyBackup — a standalone HubSpot backup tool designed as a dedicated service for protecting your HubSpot data.
