Hi
This depends on how you backed up dashy, did you use cloud backup?
Then you need the ID and Password which were showed during the backup.
Otherwise, they should be located in /app/user-data/config-backups, mostly you should have user-data folder mapped to a folder on your host through a docker volume.
I backed up using the view(Export config:
then "download as a file"
And I would guess that there is/should be a GUI place to import a exported config (or not?)
How can I insert that data again?
You can insert the data, as always when editing the config file, when setting up the docker container you need to make a volume bind mount from ~/dashy/:/app/user-data/ for example, then you can manually edit the conf.yml inside that mapped folder.
thank you, it worked fine.
