About Coveo Cloud V2 Organization Backups

By default, the Coveo Cloud platform makes two types of backups for your Coveo organization. One backup contains the content of your index and security cache, and the other keeps in memory important information related to your organization such as analytics data and sources. Both backups provide all the data required to restore your Coveo Cloud organization.

You cannot restore a backup from the Coveo Cloud administration console, you must contact Coveo Support when you need to restore one of your backups.
