  • New in Beach: Restore backups yourself

    Regular backups are made automatically for all Beach instances. If something goes really wrong, it was previously possible to quickly restore the working state via a support ticket.

    This is one of the most requested improvements related to testing and debugging Flow and a long time after I first spoke about this with Derick some years ago, we now can make this happen.
