Restoring from backup

In order to fully restore your PhotoPrism instance you need the following:

• All photo, video, and sidecar files in your originals folder
• An index database SQL dump

(A backup based on our documentation will be enough)

After verifying that you have all you need, continue with the following restore-procedure:

1. Restore the contents in your originals folder
2. photoprism restore -i [filename-to-your-sql-dump]
3. Re-index (Complete rescan) your library, in order to re-generate thumbnails.
