I have 2 accounts, a personal and a company one. I want to import a project / db from my personal into my company account but cannot figure out a way to do that.

I can export the app as html along with the db as CSV, but where is the import feature? Please help

Hello! As for projects - you can create project backup and restore it under new account, as for DB - when you export DB as CSV file all DB tables will be exported as separate CSV files. You can import them back on Collections tab:

Thanks. Importing the db was easy.

I just backed up the application. I'm in my new account and don't know how to import the app?

Hi,

To restore project from backup:

Code: Select all

 1) Save current project backup; 
 2) Click "More Create Options" button; 
 3) Check "From Backup"; 
 4) Select saved project backup.

[quote:]I can export the app as html[/quote]Sorry, I didn't notice at once. You save html-files, but you should click Backup button in app list. There is no import from HTML.

Hi,

I get the same error when trying to create from a backup taken. I did click the backup button on my project and I am trying to import the zip file, but i keep getting "Unable to upload unsupported file type: project_116911_backup.zip"

i even tried extracting the zip file and uploading individual files, same problem.

Hi Eddie,

What browser do you use? Did you try from another browser?
