Campaign configuration
Campaign Data and Lifecycle
Manage collaborators, backups, imports, deletion, and the seven-day recovery window.
GM
About 9 minutes
Manage campaign collaborators
- Open Campaign Settings, then Campaign.
- Add a member by email and assign the minimum role they need.
- Use GM for collaborators who build and run content, or Viewer for read-only access.
- Review the member list whenever staffing or ownership changes.
Important
Campaign collaborators use the GM workspace and are different from players. Do not grant a collaborator role merely to share player-facing lore.
Export a backup or readable archive
- Open Campaign Settings, then Data.
- Choose Export JSON for a machine-readable backup that can be imported later.
- Choose Export Readable ZIP for Markdown documents and attachments suited to offline reference.
- Store exports according to the privacy needs of the campaign.
Best practice
Export JSON before a large import, calendar restructure, or schema change. Use the readable ZIP for archival access, not round-trip restoration.
Import campaign data
- Export the current campaign before importing.
- Choose Import JSON and select a valid Tapestry JSON export.
- Wait for the imported entity count confirmation.
- Review representative entities, relationships, and settings before continuing work.
Important
Import preserves existing data rather than replacing the campaign. Re-importing overlapping content may create records you need to reconcile.
Delete or restore a campaign
- Only the owner can schedule deletion from Campaign Settings, then Data.
- Type the exact campaign name to confirm. The campaign disappears from members and players immediately.
- During the seven-day recovery window, find it under Recently Deleted on the Campaigns page and choose Restore.
- After the recovery deadline, treat the campaign as permanently unavailable.
