The System Updater module allows administrators to manage over-the-air (OTA) software updates and create/restore data backups.
Checking for Updates
- Go to Settings > System Updater.
- Click Check for Updates.
- If an update is available, a changelog will be displayed.
- Click Install Update. The system will update and restart in approximately 2–5 minutes.
Creating a Backup
- Under System Updater > Backups, click Create Backup Now.
- Choose backup scope: Full (all data) or Partial (contacts only, settings only, etc.).
- The backup file will be generated and available for download as a
.zipfile. - Store backups in a secure offsite location (Google Drive, S3, etc.).
Restoring a Backup
- Click Restore Backup and upload the backup
.zipfile. - Select what to restore: All data, Contacts only, Settings only.
- Click Confirm Restore. Note: This action is irreversible.
⚠️ Always create a fresh backup before installing any update. While updates are tested, having a backup ensures you can roll back if something unexpected happens.
