Atlassian keeps Jira running. When an automation runs wide, you own the recovery. Resilience starts there: Rewind puts a work item, a space, or the whole instance back in minutes.
Spaces with their components, categories, features, roles, versions, properties, property keys, and avatars.
Work item type screen schemes, work item security schemes, permission schemes, grants, and notification schemes.
Work items with their attachments, comments, fields, links, transitions, properties, votes, watchers, and worklogs.
Custom field contexts and options, field configurations and configuration schemes, property keys, and remote links.
Work item types, type schemes, type screen schemes, link types, security schemes, priorities, and resolutions.
Boards, sprints, epics, statuses, dashboards, filters, screens, screen tabs, screen tab fields, and screen schemes.
Workflows, workflow schemes, workflow scheme space associations, workflow scheme drafts, transition rules, and transition properties.
Service spaces with their queues and space features, customer organizations, and knowledge base articles.
Requests, the work items behind them, request types, type groups, feedback, and service level agreements.
Object schemas, object types, objects, object type attributes, and object type references.
Jira Work Management spaces, work items, and boards, plus Jira Product Discovery spaces and ideas.
Automation flows, backed up whole. Their triggers, conditions, and actions travel inside the flow.
Atlassian keeps the platform running, but the data inside it is yours to protect and recover. That includes every work item, sprint, workflow, and configuration your delivery pipeline depends on. When something breaks, your team stops and commitments slip.
Auditors need backup evidence, tested procedures, and documented RTO and RPO targets. Holding a copy of your data is one thing; showing you can reconstruct from it is what the audit asks for.
Some incidents corrupt a single work item, and some corrupt an entire instance. Either way, teams stop shipping and timelines slip, so your recovery plan needs to cover both the smallest object and the whole site.
A service space carries queues, request types, and service level agreements, and your agents look things up in Assets objects. Lose any of it and requests stop moving while customers keep waiting. Rewind holds a daily copy of all of it.
AI agents can corrupt thousands of items in seconds. A wrong instruction at scale hits sprints, backlogs, and workflows faster than any team can catch it. You need a way to undo the damage before it compounds.
Resilience is recovery built into the way your team already works. A bad automation, a deleted space or a bulk edit gone wrong is a roll-back, handled by the people who noticed it.
Open the backup timeline, search for the work item by name, or go straight to a date and time. On Advanced, open a restore point you bookmarked ahead of a risky change.
Pick a work item and it comes back with its attachments, comments, votes, watchers, and worklogs. Pick a space, a permission scheme, or an Assets object schema, and everything inside it comes back too.
An Advanced Restore returns your whole Jira site to a chosen point in time. Every item changed since then is updated in place, and anything removed since then is rebuilt, so your site matches the moment it worked.
On Advanced and Enterprise, Rewind restores a full point-in-time copy into a fresh Jira instance for staging, testing, or disaster recovery. Your spaces, work items, workflows, boards, and Assets object schemas arrive together.
Rewind runs automated daily backups on your Jira environment and keeps 365 days of history by default. Run a backup on demand before a risky change. On Advanced and Enterprise, set custom backup policies for your highest-risk spaces.
Backups are encrypted in transit and at rest with AES-256. Every backup, restore, and export is written to an exportable audit log with 365 days of history. Rewind offers data residency in six regions.
When mistakes happen, compare versions first, then restore a single item in a few clicks. Schema-aware recovery rebuilds relationships, so restoring an Assets object schema brings its object types, attributes, and references back with it.
When a whole instance goes down, Hot Standby on Advanced and Enterprise keeps a second instance continuously synced with spaces, work items, boards, sprints, epics, workflows, screens, screen schemes, filters, statuses, and permission schemes with their grants.
“If you have a major disaster, you need a partner who’s going to get your data back as quickly as possible, especially if something unexpected comes up. Rewind really wants to be a partner in solving these problems.”
Jeremy Neyhart, Engineering Manager

“Rewind gave me peace of mind so I don’t have to worry about damage to my systems, whether it’s caused by wrong usage or by AI overreach.”

“Whether it’s restoring data from an accidental deletion or compromise, or just having the peace of mind knowing that Rewind’s there if you need it, is why we recommend Rewind to every client.”
Wes Buckwalter, CEO
SeaMonster Studios
“I’ve been through disasters. I’ve seen people just delete things or make a mistake. And I’ve seen viruses go scampering across the network, so I know their destructive capabilities. I’ve seen why a third-party backup is important.”
Paul Jacques, Security & Infrastructure Manager
Nexus FrontierTech
“We knew Atlassian provides limited data backup coverage, but that doesn’t extend to backup of account-level data in GitHub and Jira.”
Eran Polak, R&D Manager
Matics
“Rewind doesn’t just give us a full backup of the codebase with just a few clicks; it also gives us a business continuity plan in the event of the worst-case scenario.”
Uttej Badwane, Senior Security Engineer

“The biggest benefit of working with Rewind is the peace of mind. I know that if I make a mistake, Shopify crashes, or our data is stolen, that Rewind has me covered. I can easily log in and access my data and restore it.”
All 75 Jira resource types are named in the coverage section above. In short: work items with their attachments, comments, and fields; boards, sprints, epics, workflows, screens, filters, and dashboards; service spaces, queues, requests, and knowledge base articles; Assets object schemas and objects; and automation flows, which are recovered by import. Backups run daily.
Native tools are built for uptime, not recovery. Atlassian keeps its own backups for 30 days and restores them all or nothing. Rewind restores at the item level, stores your backups outside Atlassian, and offers configurable retention up to 99 years on Enterprise.
Yes. One Rewind Backups for Jira subscription covers Jira and Jira Service Management, including Assets. An Advanced Restore rebuilds your company-managed spaces across both products. Item-level restore reaches service spaces along with the work items behind each request, their comments, and their attachments.
Yes, on Advanced and Enterprise plans. Backup policies let you set custom frequency and retention per space, so your highest-risk spaces get more coverage while the rest follow your default. Retention starts at 90 days and you can extend it whenever you need to. Your first full-instance backup is kept for a full year.
