Restore from Dropbox

Restoring from dropbox allows you to restore your content to a previous daily backup. If you’ve connected a Dropbox account to your Workflowy, you can then restore from a daily backup at any point. Restoring will not overwrite your existing data, it will only put the restored data in a new item at the top of your account.

Note:

- Restoring from a backup is not instant, so please be patient as this can take up to 30 minutes for very large backup files.

- You also won't be able to load your account or save any changes while the backup is being restored.  

1. Open your Dropbox account
2. Find and download your Workflowy backup (ends in workflowy.backup)

4. Click on “Settings
5. Click on “Restore from a Dropbox backup
6. Click on the “Choose File” button and select the Workflowy backup file
7. Click the “Restore From Backup” button
8. Once the backup has finished you can open Workflowy
