Storage → Snapshot Data Stores

AI-generated

Overview

This node operation interacts with the Roblox Cloud Storage resource to snapshot data stores within a specified universe. It is useful for backing up or capturing the current state of data stores in a Roblox universe, which can be critical for data preservation, recovery, or migration scenarios.

Use Case Examples

  1. Backing up all data stores in a game universe before a major update.
  2. Creating snapshots of data stores for audit or version control purposes.

Properties

Name Meaning
Universe ID The universe ID that owns the storage resource, required to specify which universe's data stores to snapshot.
Request Options Optional settings for the request such as batching, SSL certificate validation, proxy configuration, and timeout settings.

Output

JSON

  • snapshotId - Identifier of the created snapshot for the data stores.
  • status - Status of the snapshot operation, indicating success or failure.
  • timestamp - Timestamp when the snapshot was created.

Dependencies

  • Requires Roblox Cloud API access with an API key credential for authentication.

Troubleshooting

  • Ensure the Universe ID is correct and the API key has permissions to access the specified universe's storage.
  • Timeout errors may occur if the server is slow or unresponsive; adjust the timeout setting accordingly.
  • SSL certificate errors can be bypassed by enabling the 'Ignore SSL Issues' option, but this is insecure and should be used cautiously.
