# How to download logical backups in Supabase with physical backups enabled?

When Point-in-Time Recovery (PITR) or physical backups are enabled, Supabase no longer generates the downloadable logical backup file (backup.gz). This is expected, as the backup pipeline switches entirely to physical backups. You can still download backups via the [Supabase CLI `db dump` command](https://supabase.com/docs/reference/cli/supabase-db-dump) or using [`pg_dump`](https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/app-pgdump.html).

For step-by-step instructions using the Supabase CLI, check out the [Backup database using the CLI](https://supabase.com/docs/guides/platform/migrating-within-supabase/backup-restore#backup-database-using-the-cli) guide.
