Import/Export Data

Importing Data

You can import data into your Upstash Redis database from two sources: an existing backup or an RDB file.

Start an Import

To begin importing data:

• Go to the Redis database list page in the Upstash console
• Click on the Import... button

You'll see a dialog with two import options:

Option 1: Import from Backup

Import data from a backup of any existing database in your account or team:

• Select From Backup as the source
• Choose the source database (the database from which the backup was created)
• Select the backup you want to import from
• Select the target database (the database you want to import into)
• Click Start Import

Option 2: Import from RDB File

Import data from an external Redis database by uploading an RDB file:

• Select From RDB File as the source
• Click Upload RDB File and select your RDB file
• Select the target database (the database you want to import into)
• Click Start Import

Exporting Data

You'll be able to export your Upstash Redis database as an RDB file for backup or migration purposes.

Request an Export

To export your database:

• Go to the database details page and navigate to the Backups tab
• Click on the Backup & Export button
• Choose Export

Your database will be exported as an RDB file. Once you start the export, you'll see the export progress in the backups table.

Download Your Export

Once the export completes, you'll see a Download button in the backups table:

• Find your export in the backups table
• Click the Download button to download the RDB file
