ARK: Survival Evolved server guide

Back up and restore your ARK: Survival Evolved server

HaruHost backs up your ARK world on demand, on a schedule or before updates, keeps as many backups as you choose, and restores one in a single step. Files lets you download the saves or upload a world from the browser.

Back up

  • Back up on demand, or on a schedule and before every update with an automation.
  • Choose how many backups to keep; older ones are removed.

Restore

Pick a backup and restore it; the server goes back to that moment.

Download or upload a world

With Files, download the server's save folder as a ZIP from any browser, or upload a world from another server.

Before a big change

Back up before you switch between Preaquatica and Latest, change the map or add a mod map.
