    • Project: SaaS Support (SAASCASE)

    • Issue Type: Support Case

    • Summary: DB Snapshot Download Request

    • SaaS Severity: Middle

  2. In Description, paste the following template and replace the placeholders:

    • CIDR: <ip-range-from-where-the-download-is-requested>

    • Name: <requester-name>

    • Email: <requester-email>

  3. Complete the authorization verification requested by Airlock Support.
    --> After verification, you receive the following:

    • a DropSecret link that provides the passphrase for decrypting the snapshot

  4. Store both the passphrase and the the download link securely.
    ⓘ Note that both DropSecret links can be opened only once.

  5. Download and decrypt the snapshot:

    wget $DOWNLOAD_LINK -O iam-snapshot.7z
    7z x iam-snapshot.7z
