Exporting and importing your data

Save your own data to a file, load it into any Dinatos account, or wipe your account. Use this to move between instances or keep a personal backup.

Export

  1. Open Settings -> Export my data.

  2. Save the JSON file.

It holds your settings (height, units), routines, activities, body measurements, planned workouts and the exercises they use. It never contains your password, your WorkoutX API key or anyone else’s data.

Import

  1. Open Settings -> Import my data and choose a file exported from Dinatos.

  2. Choose a mode.

  3. Confirm.

Mode

Effect

Merge (default)

Adds what is missing. Keeps everything you already have. Importing the same file twice creates no duplicates.

Replace my data

First deletes all your routines, activities and body measurements, then imports the file.

Merge treats these as already present:

Item

Match on

Routine

Same name

Activity

Same title and start time

Measurement

Same date and time

Planned workout

Same title and time

Exercises are shared across the instance. Each exercise in the file is matched by name. If none matches, a custom exercise is created. Settings in the file apply in both modes.

A file that is not a Dinatos export, or is inconsistent, is rejected and nothing changes.

Clear all account data

  1. In Settings, turn on Advanced.

  2. Choose Clear all account data and confirm.

This deletes your activities, routines, body measurements, planned workouts, import history and any custom exercises nobody else uses. It keeps your settings and account. It cannot be undone.

Server backups

Administrators can back up the whole server. See Upgrades and backups.
