Hello, today i will guide you to make your own auto backup feature for your website, it will backup your server’s files and your database’s sql info and it will send everything to your private telegram group (i choose telegram because the file upload limit is more generous than other chat platform, and also it is easy to make too)
First, open telegram and click on search bar, type botfather and click open
after that click create a new bot
and then give your bot a memorable and cute name
make sure to add a bot at the end of your bot username
now click copy to copy the api key and paste it somewhere safe
next step is to create a group and add your bot in, click on new group
and then add your bot to your group
give your group a memorable and cute name and click the arrow button to create the group
now check your address bar, you can see it have Telegram id, make sure to copy that, for example your link is Telegram then you need to copy -5180783602, paste it somewhere safe and move to the next step
go to pipedream and create a new project, name it something cute and memorable
in here click create workflow
now give it a cute and memorable name and set those value like my setting (if you backup lots of website and database, for 1 website and 1 database, just leave the time out to 30 seconds
click create workflow, and click the plus button in the middle of the screen, click custom interval
set the trigger to weekly
click plus icon and type python, click run python code
paste the source code in the code box, here is the source code Note 06/01/2026 14:13:35 - Online Notepad
make sure to fill your hosting infomation and the bot infomation to make it work, after you done, click test
ok bot working, now click deploy
congrats, now your website will be backed up weekly, if you want daily, or if you are a freak and you want minutesly, you can set the custom interval to your value you want, just make sure you dont burn your free 100 credits a month fast or else your backup script wont work
i think admin wont like this solution much but it is a good temporary solution if you want backup feature for free
if you have any question, please ask chatgpt spoiler
