Discord server backup · live sync

Your server,
twice over.

CloneSync copies every channel, message, file, role and permission of your server to a backup server: first it clones what is already there, then it keeps syncing every change.

Features

Everything is copied. Really everything.

Not just messages: roles, permissions, threads, settings – and every change as it happens.

Every message

All messages of all channels, cloned from the very first one (by your plan), with the original name, avatar and date.

Images and videos

In original, full quality, re-uploaded – not as links. One message is one message in the backup too.

Threads and forums

Active and archived threads, forum posts, replies and forwarded messages.

Roles and permissions

Roles with their permissions, colours and order, the @everyone permissions and per-channel permissions too.

Members' roles

Whoever joins the backup server automatically gets their original roles and nickname.

Bans

Existing and new bans and unbans – live.

Server settings

Banner, invite background, verification level, emojis and stickers.

Edits and deletions

When someone edits or deletes a message – even an old one –, it happens in the backup too.

Detailed log

On the dashboard you see exactly how much of what was synced – downloadable as a file too.

How it works

Three steps and you're done.

1

Invite the bot

To the original and to the backup server, with the Administrator permission.

2

Start the backup

On the backup server: /backup <original server>, or with one click on the dashboard.

3

Sit back

The bot clones what is already there, then keeps syncing every change.

Crash-proof

Power cut? No problem.

After a restart or a network error it continues exactly where it stopped: no duplicate and no missing messages, and whatever changed in the meantime is caught up too.

  • Every message is copied exactly once
  • Missed edits and deletions too
  • No downtime during updates
$ bot restarting…
→ unfinished message: #general, part 2/3 done
→ sending part 3 ............ ok
→ missed edits ................ 4 caught up
✓ live sync continues
FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How long does the full copy take?

It depends on the size of the server. Because of Discord's limits, a big server can take hours, even days. Meanwhile the channels already done go live, and you see the progress on the dashboard.

What happens if the bot stops?

No problem: after a restart it continues exactly where it stopped. No duplicate and no missing messages.

Are members copied too?

A bot cannot invite members to a server (Discord does not allow it). But whoever joins the backup server automatically gets their original roles. The full member list can be downloaded as CSV.

How big files can it copy?

As big as the backup server allows: 10 MB without boosts, 50 MB on Level 2, 100 MB on Level 3.

If I delete a message, is it deleted from the backup too?

Yes, the backup is an exact copy. If you switch it on on the dashboard, deleted messages can stay in the backup, marked „Deleted”.

Who can make a backup of a server?

Only someone who is an Administrator on both the original and the backup server.
