This article explains how to find specific records, comments, or files in your ProBackup data. You can either navigate directly to a known location or use Global Search to scan across all your backups.
Contextual search
Use contextual search when you know which project, list, or board the item belongs to.
On the Home page, click "Go to..." for the app you want to search.
Select the relevant data type tab (e.g. tasks, comments, files, or fields).
In the left sidepane, navigate to the correct project, list, or board.
Use the search field above the data table to filter and find specific items.
Note: For certain apps, such as HubSpot, the left sidepane is not available. All data is displayed directly in the main tables.
Global search
Use Global Search when you are unsure where an item was located. This feature scans across your entire backup, searching through all tasks, records, comments, file names, documents, and field names.
Click the search bar in the menu bar.
Select the app you want to search in.
Enter a record name, keyword, or content fragment.
Click on a result to jump directly to the item in your backup. From there, you can inspect the details or start a restore.
Note: Global Search is limited to 3 searches per day on the Plus plan. It is fully available on the Pro and Premium plans.
