Hello @hquery , At the moment, there is no direct way to back up the Spaces on our platforms. However, you can still achieve this by choosing the best suitable method for your use from the various methods provided below. You can create a space in a different region and copy the files using tools like rclone: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-transfer-digitalocean-spaces-between-regions-using-rclone You can use tools like s3cmd to download the files and have them saved in your local repositories. You can setup s3cmd by referring to the link given below: https://www.digitalocean.com/docs/spaces/resources/s3cmd/ Once the s3cmd setup is done, you can use s3cmd command to download filesrecursively in spaces. s3cmd sync s3://bucketnamehere/folder /destination/folder You can use third-party tools like GoodSync.

You can use tools like s3cmd to download the files and have them saved in your local repositories. You can setup s3cmd by referring to the link given below: https://www.digitalocean.com/docs/spaces/resources/s3cmd/

Once the s3cmd setup is done, you can use s3cmd command to download files recursively in spaces.

s3cmd sync s3://bucketnamehere/folder /destination/folder

You can use third-party tools like GoodSync. Goodsync - https://yetimedia.be/en/backing-up-digital-ocean-spaces-with-goodsync/ Hope this helps!
