Data Model restore - idea for improvements

Daniele Di Lorenzo
edited September 2021 in Idea Exchange
PROBLEM:
B10 Web:
1) When I click on "restore data model" I see the list of all db backups, and choosing another data model the one I want to restore is completely replaced by the other one (except the name). This could happen by mistake.

2) I cannot access to this function if the database is corrupted and access denied for admin only. And this is the most frequent case when the restore is needed.

WORKAROUND
I'll continue to use the Client for restore actions.
Or, from the web: delete the corrupted db from the folder, create a new one with the same name, restore the backup

IDEAS
1) Set the Restore option also as general action, as in Board Client

2) In the "restore" option from DB menu add a search box to easily view all versions of desired db and reduce the risk to choose another db by mistake
