Set up auto-backups and pre-wipe checks

Updated 2026-06-19 · Palworld · Saves · 3 min read

Overview

This tutorial covers how to complete "Set up auto-backups and pre-wipe checks" in the GSS console. The flow is built around visual actions — no command line, and every key step shows its impact and supports rollback.

i
Before you start: Make sure you've created a Palworld server and can open the console. For data-affecting actions, create a backup under Saves first.

Steps

01
Open Scheduled Tasks
Console → Scheduled Tasks, click New Schedule.
02
Create a backup task
Pick Backup and set a daily time or a repeating interval; automatic backups keep the latest 8 (rolling).
03
Check the run history
Each backup's success or failure appears in Run History.
04
Export before wiping
Export a backup to your computer from Saves before wiping.
05
Wipe
Wiping requires the server to be stopped and only deletes world saves; platform backups are kept and a restore point is created automatically.
⚠
Note: This action may affect saves or online players. Confirm a backup exists before running; high-risk actions only take effect after a second confirmation.
