Request:

We need the ability to perform a full backup/export with all information of our cloud catalog, and then be able to import it. Automated export would be a nice feature enhancement beyond the basic capability.

 

Background:

This functionality will address many issues. Such as Adobe vulverability to Ransomeware: https://community.adobe.com/t5/lightroom-ecosystem-cloud-based-discussions/p-lightroom-cloud-based-library-backup/m-p/12322430#M56425

 

Or the ability to migrate catelogs between accounts:

This is a crucial feature. My company just changed from "personal" licenses to an enterprise license, and I have no way to migrate my Lightroom catalog from the "personal" account without losing all editing capabilities and my albums. This makes me concerned to restart in a new catalog because if I move companies, I will lose my catalog format all over again.

Yep, this is very much needed! From personal to business accounts, from university to personal accounts, and from personal to personal accounts.
