Typically my company will have us save a backup of whatever project we are working on on a daily basis. Pretty much in every project that we use ignition, it is a single project gateway. What is the best way to backup a project that includes the tags and UDTs we are using. We want the capability to basically completely restore a project if something broke or got memory wiped.

Alternatively, say we have two projects, what’s the best way to backup a single project with the tags, I assume export the project and export the tags, I have not been able to successfully export and Import tags and UDTs from one project to another.
Tags don’t belong to projects, they exist entirely independent of them.
You would have to manage project exports and tag exports separately if you don’t go with the gateway backup option. And if your project uses a DB connection, or references other tag providers, or… other things… they may be missing if you try to use this approach.
