I’d like an automated way of backing up all the calendar entries for all the users on a Nextcloud able to set backup intervals (minutes, hours, days, weeks) able to set rolling window so that older backups are deleted to make room for current ones backups should be in the form of .ICS files that c…

I’m sorry, but for companies the linked script is not practicable: Think about 300 users have their own personal calendar and maybe every user is member of 2 group calendars. Additional there is a problem with data protection - the “backup”-user is able to read all entries of all calendars. No dat…

You can backup the whole data base, everything is included there. However, all data is readable at all time for an admin user or in the backup. You could perhaps get a occ-command, but then you also would have all the data for each calendar in a clear-text file how does this solve your concerns?

I agree with you that the whole data is in the database and with this backup you will be able to restore every calendar (see the blog from “nickvergessen” for the steps to restore it: https://www.schilljs.com/2017/03/29/restore-single-calendar-from-backup.html ). However, currently I have to restore…

The problem sits in front of the display: the user. Either they delete an entry which should not be deleted (in this case https://github.com/nextcloud/server/issues/1662 may help) or they synchronize a private calendar into group calendar by using outlook and the caldav synchronizer. However, in bo…

Calcardbackup: bash script to backup Nextcloud calendars and addressbooks as *.ics/*.vcf files 📑 How to

I like to backup my Nextcloud calendars and addressbooks as *.ics/*.vcf files, because it is very easy to restore: just import the backed up *.ics/*.vcf file to the server or a client and the accidentally deleted data is back online. calcardbackup downloads all available calendars/addressbooks from a Nextcloud instance as .ics/.vcf files. All downloaded files are then compressed to a single file with the current date in the filename. Your Nextcloud instance is broken? No problem: as long as yo…
