Shopify Backup & Migrate
Shopify does not keep a restorable copy of your data. Kepvia backs up your products, themes, content and orders automatically — then puts them back with one click when an app, a bulk edit, or a bad afternoon takes them away.

Why it matters
Shopify’s own guidance is to use a backup app. When data goes wrong, the previous state exists only if something captured it first.
Bulk editors, feed syncers and pricing apps all have write access. One bad run can flatten descriptions, prices or SEO fields across thousands of products.
A collection, a page, a theme section, a metaobject definition. Shopify’s admin has no undo, and staff permissions rarely stop it in time.
Custom sections and settings do not survive every update. Without a copy of the previous theme and its assets, rebuilding is the only option.
A staging copy, a new region, a client handover. Rebuilding a catalog by hand costs days you do not have.
Features
Backup, restore, migrate and export — the complete lifecycle of your store’s data, in one app.
Kepvia takes a full capture of your store, then keeps it current with incremental runs and live webhook updates as products change. You never start a backup by hand unless you want to.
Restore an entire store, a single product, or everything as it stood at a chosen moment. Every restore is logged, and a bulk restore can be undone from the activity feed.
Clone a backup into a second store — a staging copy, a new region, or a client handover. Connect the destination with an Admin API token and Kepvia writes the records across.
Your backups belong to you. Download them as archives, schedule weekly or monthly exports to Google Drive, and import an archive back into any store you own.
How it works
Five steps that describe the whole app. There is nothing hidden behind them.
Add Kepvia from the Shopify App Store. It authenticates through Shopify OAuth — no passwords, no manual API keys. Your first full backup starts on its own.
Pick the resources that matter to your store and how often they should be captured. Kepvia keeps them current from there, watching for changes as they happen.
Every capture is a version. Open any item to see exactly what it looked like at that point, compared against the copy that is live in your store right now.
Roll a single product back, restore the whole store to a moment before things broke, or clone the entire backup into a second store.
Export archives on demand, or schedule them weekly and monthly to Google Drive so a copy lives somewhere Kepvia does not control.
That is the whole flow.
No setup calls, no configuration files, no scripts to run.
Start freeCoverage
Not just products. Kepvia captures the content, the storefront and the custom data that make your store yours.
Orders, customers and customer segments are captured on paid plans, subject to Shopify’s protected customer data approval for your store.
Migration
A backup that can only go back where it came from is half a tool. Kepvia clones your captured store into any Shopify store you control — a staging environment, a new market, or a client’s account.
Paste an Admin API token for the store you are copying into. Kepvia tests the connection before it writes anything.
Pick which capture to clone — the latest, or any earlier point in your history.
Copy the whole store, or sync only the resources you name. It runs on a worker, so size is not a problem.
Progress is tracked live and recorded in the activity log, with the destination IDs mapped back to the source.

FAQ
What store owners want to know before trusting an app with their data.
Shopify keeps the platform running, but it does not keep a restorable copy of your data for you. Shopify’s own documentation recommends using a backup app. If an app overwrites your product descriptions, a bulk edit goes wrong, or a theme change breaks your storefront, the previous state is gone unless something captured it.
Products and variants, smart and custom collections, pages, blogs and articles, navigation menus, themes and theme assets, files and videos, metaobjects and metafield definitions, store policies, shipping zones, plus orders, customers and customer segments on paid plans.
A single item restores in seconds. A full-store restore runs as a background job so it is never cut short by a browser timeout — you watch its progress in the app and get told when it finishes.
Yes. Every bulk restore is recorded in the activity log with an undo action, so a restore that turned out to be the wrong choice can be reversed.
Yes. Connect the destination store with an Admin API token, and Kepvia clones a backup version into it. The connection is tested before anything is written. You can also sync only selected resources rather than the whole store.
Backups are stored encrypted on Kepvia’s infrastructure. You can download any backup as an archive at any time, and Pro plans can schedule weekly or monthly exports straight to your own Google Drive.
Uninstalling stops new captures. Your existing backups are retained for the duration of your plan’s history window so a reinstall can still recover them, and are then removed. Export an archive before you uninstall if you want to keep a copy indefinitely.
No. Kepvia reads through Shopify’s Admin API and runs every capture on background workers. Nothing is injected into your storefront, so there is no effect on page speed or Core Web Vitals.
