Hi everyone 👋 I have a question about backups in Supabase.
My project has been on the Free plan until now. A few days ago (about 3 days), the Cursor agent asked me to reset the project, and I wasn’t fully aware of what that actually meant at the time.
Now I’m considering upgrading to Pro (which includes daily backups stored for 7 days).
Will I be able to access and restore a backup from 3 days ago, or do backups only start generating once I move to the Pro plan?
Just want to be 100% sure before upgrading. Thanks! 🙏

Everyone who has done it say they are there from while free... but it is not documented so I would say 99% chance.
just to update my previous question about whether backups exist if the project was on the Free plan.
I upgraded my project to Pro and I can confirm that the backups were actually there, even from the days when I was still on Free. For example, I can now see snapshots from Aug 24, 25, 26… all generated automatically at around midnight (local time in Paraguay).
So the good news: ✅ if you were on Free and upgrade to Pro, you will likely find the daily backups from the past 7 days available to restore/download.
Thanks for replie @garyaustin ! It wasn’t documented, but community experience was right — and now I can also confirm it works this way. 🙏
