Backup FAQ

Common questions related to Backup and error messages

Can I configure the backup schedule?

GRAX is designed to back up your entire Salesforce organization without complicated tools to configure objects, fields or schedules.

To achieve this, GRAX periodically scans your Salesforce organization for new data. If it finds new data, it then automatically schedules smaller jobs to backup new data while staying within Salesforce API limits, and within system limits to keep Backups, Archives, Restores, Searches and History Stream working as expected.

GRAX offers an option to change the period of scans between "daily" and "continuous."

Daily scans for new data once a day, where continuous scans for new data many times a day in succession after the last scan completed.

How do I use daily backup? How does it work?

Contact GRAX support to enable Daily Backup for your deployment.

In the backup dashboard you will see continual activity during initial backup and "backfill." After that you will see activity where every object is scanned once a day but at times spread throughout the day.

No further configuration is necessary or possible on your part.

What does "INSUFFICIENT_ACCESS" mean?

Example: salesforce INSUFFICIENT_ACCESS: insufficient access rights on cross-reference id

Review your Integration User permissions for View All Data, View All Files and other required permissions. If the error occurs on Campaign or other marketing related objects, try enabling "Marketing User" for the integration user.

See the User Fields reference doc for more information.

What does "UNKNOWN_EXCEPTION" mean?

Example: UNKNOWN_EXCEPTION: sfdc.keystone.catalog.blobforce.KeystoneGetBlobFromStoresException: Failed to get a blob from all stores: orgId=00AbC000000DeM0 keyPrefix=05T entityId=05T2R000016VbmO blobId=0KF2R00002uQzDX extentId=F00D0b000000GaMp0KE2R00001MVoIw1 [...] there are no stores that currently contain the extent= F00D0b000000GaMp0KE2R00001MVoIw1, so we can't read it!)
