# Backup and Restore Reminder Data

{% hint style="info" %}
This guide is built for Workspace **Admins**
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
Available on App version 2.4.0 and above
{% endhint %}

We highly recommend creating frequent backups of your Reminder data. This will help you recover from unforeseen outages where your Reminder app becomes unusable and you have to **uninstall the app & reinstall it**. \
\
Note: Based on the architecture of Rocket.Chat apps, once an app is uninstalled, then all its corresponding data automatically gets deleted - which means if you have users who have reminders created before an outage, those will be lost when you have to reinstall the app. In such a scenario, it is quite useful having a backup of your Reminder data so you can quickly recover from the outage and don't affect your workspace user's operation.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.appsforchat.com/reminder-bot/guides/other-guides/backup-and-restore-reminder-data.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
