Export- / Import function Backup

Question

Hello,

I am interested in the Trello project management tool.

But I would only want to use it if there is also an export/import function to make/restore backups.
Does something like this exist?

Thanks

Hello,

Thanks for the answer.
Too bad - there is no explicit export-import function.
So I will not use Trello because I want to make regular backups.

@Gunter_Kreft One way to do this is to regularly copy boards and link each one to a card, then you have a board of backups, and keep them for X days. This doesn't preserve the full history though, only current snapshot.

Another way to do it is using Google Sheets, here is a good primer:

Which is more appropriate depends on why you're making the backups.
