Using Odoo onsite for custom needs

Download database backup from Odoo online

You may wonder if you are locked into the service once you start using Odoo online subscription, as all your data is stored on the Odoo cloud platform.

You are wrong! The Odoo online platform allows you to move from, and enter into it at any time. You can set up your local server with the same code used on Odoo cloud, and you will get the backup of your database for download at any time.

How to do it...

  1. Access your instances at https://accounts.odoo.com/my/databases. Click on Manage your Databases:
  1. Click on the Backup button to the right of the database name to start backup and downloading within a second. You will get the .zip file containing the backup of the database and a copy of the filestore.
  2. Download and install the Odoo Enterprise latest version from https://www.odoo.com/page/download/. For details about the installation of Odoo on Linux please refer to Appendix A, Installation of Odoo on Linux, at the end of this book.
  3. Restore the database to your local instance by typing http://localhost:8069/web/database/manager into the browser to open a database management page:
  1. Click on the Restore Database button to restore the database you have downloaded from the Odoo online platform. It will ask you to select the database backup file and master password, if you have set it, and click on the Restore button:
  1. Select the option This database was moved. This will keep your instance running with the same subscription key you have on the online instance. You have to renew your subscription from https://www.odoo.com/buy later.

Note

Moving from online to onsite, you may lose the website theme which was used on the online version, but you may buy that theme from the Odoo app store to use it onsite.
