1. 1. Take a backup

   A backup saves your roles, channels, categories and their permissions.

   /backup create · Dashboard: Access & backups › Backups

2. 2. Check before loading

   Info shows exactly what loading a backup would change, before anything happens.

   /backup info

3. 3. Load it

   Load puts back what’s missing or changed. Only the person who ran it, and the owner, can confirm.

   /backup load

4. 4. Automatic backups (Kipp Plus)

   With Kipp Plus, Kipp takes a backup every day and keeps the latest ones. Manual backups stay free.

   /backup auto

5. 5. Set up owner rescue

   Rescue gives the owner a one-time key and an authenticator code. If the owner account is ever lost or stolen, they can get Kipp control back from another account.
