Snapshots are point-in-time copies of a branch stored without an attached compute. You can create them on demand (1 on the Free plan, 10 on paid plans); paid plans also support scheduled snapshots, which don't count toward the manual limit.
Manual snapshots can only be created from root branches. Unlike a branch, a snapshot has no attached compute; it's a stored backup copy you restore from rather than connect to directly.
Use these endpoints to create snapshots manually, list them, restore from them, or delete them. Scheduled snapshots are managed automatically; you interact with them mainly when restoring.
See Backup and restore for pricing and usage details.
