Copia DeviceLink makes it easy to set up automated backups quickly for an entire Site using a sitewide backup schedule. Instead of manually scheduling backups for each of your Copia Projects one by one, the sitewide backup schedule applies a single schedule to every Project in a Site. However, there are plenty of reasons why you might want to exclude certain Projects from a schedule - perhaps a line is undergoing maintenance, or a device is awaiting a firmware upgrade.

That’s why DeviceLink now gives you the option to exclude Projects from a sitewide backup schedule. To exclude a Project, open the detail view and activate the “Exclude from Sitewide Backup Schedule” toggle (shown in the image above).

We know that case-by-case exclusions such as these may make it difficult to remember whether you have configured your automated backups as expected. That’s why we’ve also added a visual label to Projects that are not currently associated with any scheduled job, including sitewide schedules (shown in the image below). This label makes it easier to see which of your Projects are not configured for automated backup at a glance.

Thank you and please reach out with any questions - we are always here to help and look forward to continually improving our product and your user experience!
