Backups

Backups are used for retrieving information that might be needed for moderation after a channel has been deleted. They are temporarily stored as encrypted text files on the server.

Creating Backups

If a channel gets deleted or multiple messages get deleted at once (bulk deletions), the bot will automatically encrypt and save the cached messages that were deleted. This behavior can also be manually triggered using the /backup create command, where limit is the amount of messages to fetch and backup.

Listing Backups

/backup list will send a selection menu of all encrypted backups that exist in the file system. Selecting an entry will decrypt it and send it as a text file into the current channel.

Deleting Backups

All backups will be automatically deleted after 28 days.
