# Deprecated cloud backup and migration to Devolutions Cloud

Migrate from the deprecated Cloud backup feature in Remote Desktop Manager to Devolutions Cloud or a synchronized file backup instead.

Remote Desktop Manager’s ***Cloud backup*** feature has been deprecated as it relies on outdated infrastructure and technology no longer supported by Devolutions.

A more streamlined way to have an automatic online backup is to [Create a Devolutions Cloud](https://docs.devolutions.net/cloud/getting-started/create-your-devolutions-cloud-workspace) and then [to use it as a workspace in Remote Desktop Manager](/rdm/getting-started/workspaces/workspace-types/native-workspaces/devolutions-cloud.md).

Alternatively, you can use Remote Desktop Manager’s ***File backup*** feature and place the resulting `.rdm` file in a folder synchronized by your preferred cloud provider (i.e., OneDrive, Google Drive, Dropbox).

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.devolutions.net/rdm/knowledge-base/how-to-articles/deprecated-cloud-backup-and-migration-to-devolutions-cloud-free.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
