Hello @yycc, Can I ask what step you have followed in restoring your Appsmith instance?

glad to see your message.
After I entered docker env which need to be backuped , run this cmd:“appsmithctl backup”.
Then I entered docker env which need to be recovered,run this cmd:“appsmithctl restore”
that’all ,thanks a lot!

Hello @yycc,

Have you followed our docs here? If so, did you remember to save the encryption env values, APPSMITH_ENCRYPTION_PASSWORD and APPSMITH_ENCRYPTION_SALT, from docker.env before backing up the instance? The backup archive does not include them for security reasons.

yes,i have kept these env values,but i found they have been existed in the exported files,I have a check and confirm this before I imported data.Thanks for your help!

@yycc Could you share the full logs when you try to restore the backup? It would also be helpful if you could provide a loom.com screen recording of this behavior.
