Backup & Restore

Your flows belong to you. URLflows Workspace makes it easy to export them, restore them, or move them between machines.

JSON backup

  1. Open Settings → Data Management.
  2. Click Export to download a timestamped JSON file of all your sections, bookmarks, and settings.
  3. Store it wherever you keep backups — Dropbox, a USB drive, or your dotfiles repo.

Restore from JSON

  1. Open Settings → Data Management.
  2. Click Import and pick a previously exported JSON file.
  3. Confirm the import. Your existing data will be replaced with the backup.

Full Folder Backup

For the most complete backup, export the entire extension as a loadable unpacked folder. Use this when you want a pristine copy of the extension state, not just its data.

Moving to a new computer

  1. Export a JSON backup on your old machine.
  2. Install URLflows Workspace on the new machine.
  3. On first launch, choose Restore from backup and select the file.

Reset everything

From Data Management you can also reset settings to defaults or delete all URLflows Workspace data. Both actions are irreversible — export a backup first.
