Data Transfer

Some Facebook support groups asked a common question about how to keep and transfer existing Nightscout data to a new instance.

I have created the data transfer tool to address and resolve this issue. It is freely available for anyone with a Nightscout site hosted with nightscout.pro or any other host.

When using the tool, you must enter your old Nightscout site URL. If your old site had AUTH_DEFAULT_ROLES set to ‘denied’ (meaning you had to enter your API SECRET to view the data), then you’d need to enter your old API SECRET too. Enter your new URL and new API SECRET, and you can quickly transfer profile, entries and treatment data between Nightscout instances.
