Library Data, Backups & Transfer
Back up, export, import, and review activity in your local library.
Library data, backups, and transfer
Your library is stored locally. Use the data tools in Settings → Data & Backup when you want an extra copy, move data, or recover from an accidental deletion.
Back up your library
PromptBranch writes a backup automatically once a day and keeps the latest ten. To create one immediately, open Settings → Data & Backup and select Back up now.
A backup is useful before importing a large library or making irreversible changes. Your database location is shown in the same settings section and can be copied when you need it.
Export and import a library
To move or copy your whole library:
- Open Settings → Data & Backup.
- Select Export library… and choose where to save the JSON file.
- On the destination device, select Import library… and choose that file.
Import merges the export into the current library. It is separate from multi-device sync, which keeps paired devices up to date automatically.
You can also export one prompt from More actions → Export prompt JSON. That file contains the prompt and its versions, notes, and run history.
History and Trash
History in the left rail is a library-wide feed of recently created versions. Select an item to open its prompt.
Deleting a prompt moves it to Trash first. Restore it from there if you need it again. Permanently empty Trash in Settings removes every trashed prompt and cannot be undone.
