Backup and restore
The Azure AI Health Bot backup and restore feature supports multiple use cases. The backup files contain all the information required to recreate a complete bot instance allowing you to easily restore your bot instance to a previous point in time or roll back to a previous working version.
Backups also improve the management experience and deployment processes for tenants with multiple bot instances. For example, you can use backups to replicate a bot and test small changes, or transfer new bot versions between test and production environments.
Create a backup file
In the management portal header, navigate to settings menu. Select the backup option to download a backup file. Note that this operation can take several minutes to complete depending on the size of your bots assets. The file will automatically download to your default download folder.
Restore from a backup file
In the management portal header, navigate to the settings menu and select the restore action.Use the file picker to locate the backup file with the bot version that you would like to restore.
Confirm the restore action by typing "Restore". Assets such as Scenarios and Language models are merged with your bot. If the assets in the backup file have names that conflict with the assets in your bot, they'll overwrite the existing bot assets.
