Glossary

Account

Account is your collaborative working space where you can operate alone or with a team. Account is in charge of your backup settings and subscriptions. To start backing up your data you need to create atleast one account.

Activity

Activity represents actions performed on your data, such as creating backups or restoring them to Source.

Backup

Backup is a snapshot of the data from a data source. It captures the state of your data at the time of the backup and is used to restore data if the original records are lost, corrupted, or modified.

Objects

Objects are entities within your data source that organize and store information. SkyBackup interacts with objects to identify, back up, and restore data as needed.

Profile

Profile stores information about you and SkyBackup authentication settings. SkyBackup and Skyvia share a profile, so any changes made in SkyBackup will be applied to Skyvia, and vise versa.

Record

Record is a single piece of data, such as a contact, account, deal, etc., that includes relevant information and properties specific to this object.

Source

Source is an application you back up your data from.

Currently, HubSpot is the only available Source.

DML Operations

DML operations are commands used to manipulate data. They are ensuring data integrity and consistency during the data restoration. SkyBackup uses INSERT (adding new records), UPDATE (modifying existing records), and DELETE (removing records).
