Flourish Backup (Moved)
Step 1 - Login and create an account
Create your account:
Step 2 - Add your Google Workspace domain and install the application
3. Install the afi.ai Google Workspace Add-on
In the Marketplace please select the Admin install option and grant required permissions to the application. You will be able to install the application for your entire domain or limit the installation to a specific organizational unit that you will need to specify during the installation process in Turn ON for dropdown.
Please note, that if you install the application only to a single organizational unit, then this organizational unit needs to contain at least one user with a Google Workspace Super Admin role.
Step 3 - Select a region for your backup data
After the application is installed, you will need to select a region in which to store backups for a newly added Google Workspace domain and a time zone. The following backup regions are available: the United States, Europe (Netherlands), the United Kingdom, Canada, and Australia. Time zone settings will affect the time interval when regular backups are running.
The region where backup data are stored can not be changed once you complete this step.
Step 4 - Wait for Google Workspace resources synchronization
After adding a domain, Flourish Backup discovers domain resources, which can take anywhere from a few seconds to several hours for domains with tens of thousands of users. Once complete, the service redirects you to the backup panel and sends an email notification indicating that your account is ready. If anything goes wrong during this step, please contact us or consult the Afi Knowledge Base article on installation troubleshooting - Troubleshooting problems with Afi application installation .
It can take up to 24 hours for the application to become available to all users in your domain.
Step 5 - Protect your data
To start backing up your data, please configure protection for the whole domain or for a set of selected users or Shared drives.
a. To configure protection for the whole domain you need to select a top-level checkbox near the Resources label, then click on the Assign SLA button and select an SLA that will be applied to all domain resources. To manage auto-protecting settings or to assign SLA to specific organization unit(s), please go to Organizational units tab.
b. User can also protect only a selected subset of Users or Shared drives by assigning SLA directly to specific resources.
You can monitor backup statuses on Service -> Overview dashboard which provides a high-level status of backup operations in a domain or via Activity -> Tasks section in Afi control panel.
