PlasticSCM Cloud Archive repos without losing history

I’ve been looking for a way to archive some repositories in the cloud and the only suggestion soulutions I’ve found involve Downloading the repo, storing the data locally and then deleting the repo from the cloud.

This solution is a bit problematic as if I download the repo and then delete the repo from the cloud I lose all history tracking of changes that were made, why they were made and so on. Is there any way to export a repo from the cloud database with all this information for local storage in case I need to restore it in the future?

Hi @JFernald,

When you install Plastic SCM Cloud edition, it comes with a local server that can be only accessed by yourself. You can use sync/pull your cloud repository to the local server repo.

If the sync is completed properly, you can see the history via the local repository.
