# Can I schedule automatic exports of my data on Simkl?

Simkl does offer an automated backup feature for VIP members. To set up automatic monthly backups of your data to Google Drive or Email, follow these steps:

1. Go to the Simkl website ([https://simkl.com](https://simkl.com/)) and log in to your account.
2. Make sure you have a VIP membership. If you don't, you can upgrade your account by visiting <https://simkl.com/vip/> and selecting a VIP plan.
3. Visit the Simkl Backup App page at <https://simkl.com/apps/backup/>.
4. Choose the Enable "G Drive Backup" or "Email Backup" option.
5. Follow the on-screen instructions to set up the backup process. You may be asked to grant Simkl permission to access your Google Drive account.

Once you complete the setup process, Simkl will automatically create a full backup of your watch history in JSON format and save it to your Google Drive or send it to your email every month. This feature ensures that you never lose your watch history and can easily access your data whenever needed.

## 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.simkl.org/how-to-use-simkl/advanced-usage/import-export-data/exporting-from-simkl/faq/can-i-schedule-automatic-exports-of-my-data-on-simkl.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.
