Script to export all databases
Is there a way I can write a script to export all of my databases? I want to do this for backup purposes.

The Ninox Cloud includes automated backups. Click to the right of the database icon and select "Create backup" and then click the "Automated Backups" tab to see your backups. They include both solution and tables.

I don't have Ninox Cloud. Is there a day for me to automate the backup?

@ChuckHoffman ... What platform are you on? Mac ? I am not that great at AppleScript .. but you might look into that.. I recall doing that a few years ago and could not figure it out.. or Ninox is not script-able..
On my mac.. the local databases are store here..
~/Library/Containers/de.ninoxdb.ninox-mac.Ninox/Data/Documents/data
Hope that helps.

That helps; thanks!
I use iPhone, iPad, and Windows 10. I think I'll find the databases on the Windows laptop, like on your Mac, but in a different path.

@ChuckHoffman...
I was not aware that Ninox had shipped a native Windows 10 application. Looking at the pricing.. I only see iPhone, Mac, iPad, ... But I know there is an android version as I have that on my ChromeBook..

I'm not the same Chuck Hoffman that you know.
I misspoke about Windows 10. I forget it was the web version, not a native app.
In any case, I'll see if the Ninox database files are exposed to my external access on the iPad and iPhone. If so, I can copy them using a utility program.

@Chuck,
Yes.. I knew you were not the same "Chuck" ... . Just figured it was interesting that I know a guy with the same name.. Goole my name and you'll find a reporter .. architect / muscian .. the last is a cousin.. I supsect I am related to the first.. but never tracced it.
The Web Version is the Cloud version.. so prior comments about auto backups stand. Honestly .. for $100 / year.. and if you are creating production databases.. Well worth the investment.. You can also access those database from your iPad ... I have not worked with the iPhone vesion much..
