Baseout Support
Draft — this is a structural skeleton, not documentation. Most pages are empty stubs listing what they will cover. Nothing here is finished, and some of it describes parts of Baseout that are not built yet.

Restoring a base

Restore is base-by-base. You pick a base from a backup, pick which of its tables to bring back (all of them by default), and Baseout writes them into new tables — either in an existing base or in a brand-new one. It never overwrites the original.

Restore is best-effort. Records are recreated and as much structure as possible is rebuilt, but some field types and relationships may need a manual touch-up afterwards.

Questions this page will answer

Section titled “Questions this page will answer”
  • Can I restore over the original table? (No — restore always creates new tables.)
  • Which field types survive a restore intact, and which need fixing by hand?
  • What happens to linked records between two tables I restore together?
  • Can I restore a single table, or a single record?
  • Can I restore into a different base than the one it came from?

Not written yet

Section titled “Not written yet”

The field-type-by-field-type list is the substance of this page and is not drafted. “Some field types may need a manual touch-up” is what the product says today; which ones is unrecorded.
