I received the following warning message:

"This database is a temporary Odoo.sh staging environment. It will be automatically deleted on 31 May 2026. Staging databases are not backed up, do not store important data here."

Since this staging database is scheduled to expire, what is the recommended way to preserve and restore it later?

I have already created a backup of the staging database and I have access to Odoo.sh, but I'm still unsure about the restoration process. Could you clarify how I can restore the backup to a new staging environment or another database once the current staging database is deleted?

Hi,

The warning indicates that the database is running in a temporary Odoo.sh staging environment, which will be automatically deleted on the specified date. Temporary staging databases are not backed up by Odoo.sh, so they should not be used to store important or long-term data.

Since you have already created a backup, your data is safe. When the staging database expires, you can restore the backup through Odoo.sh by navigating to the appropriate branch and using the database restore functionality. This will create a new environment with the same data contained in the backup.

It is not possible to prevent the automatic deletion of a temporary staging database. If you need ongoing access to the data, the recommended approach is to keep regular backups and restore them to a permanent staging or development environment when required.


Hope it helps

You can reply like this:

Hello,

That warning is normal for Odoo.sh staging databases.

Staging databases are temporary, automatically deleted after some time, and are not automatically backed up. If you want to preserve the data, the correct step is to download/create a manual backup before the staging database expires.

To restore it later:

  1. Keep the backup file safely on your local system.

  2. Create/rebuild a new staging branch in Odoo.sh.

  3. Go to the new branch in Odoo.sh.

  4. Open the Backups tab.

  5. Use Import Database and upload your backup.

  6. Wait for the import to finish.

  7. Open the restored database from the branch history/connect button.

Important: do not store important production data only in staging. If the data is important, move it to production or keep regular manual backups.

So yes, once the current staging database is deleted, you can restore your saved backup into a newly created staging environment using the import database option.

Odoo’s documentation confirms that staging/development databases are not automatically backed up, staging databases are automatically deleted after a period, and Odoo.sh supports importing database backups from the branch Backups tab. (odoo.com)

Is there a way to automatically populate the delivery address on Project Tasks in the same way Odoo does for Sales Orders? If so, what configuration or customization is required?
