As explained there, the “restore” of data into an existing app will fail because of reason [irony]you-dont-want-delete-wrong-or-old-data-and-just-import-the-yesterdays-state-to-new-app-for-copy-n-paste-back-everything-you-have-changed[/irony]
So, logically we have only a one-way backup here?
I wanted to use the already existing app name (because it’s shared across the whole team) - so I decided to delete the existing app and try it again - fail…
I removed every user (except me as the only admin left on the CMS) and removed all apps - I guess now it should work, but… fail… D’Oh!
It works when I enter a new app name.
@Sebastian : do I need to open the MongoDB and remove eveything from the app in there for to use the same app name again?
It turned out that my work colleague still had data from the deleted app over the API implementation, even we have only one admin account and only one app visible
Could it be, that there is a different behavior if you assigned the app to a team?
There are two teams available - but no accounts and no visible apps assigned to them.
Could it be, that there is a different behavior if you assigned the app to a team?
Could be. If you restore the app from one app to another I think the team ID is preserved and therefore you might not see the app. But if you know the app name you can still navigate to the app.
Curiosly not really - if I try to access the app via url {HOST}/app/{OLD_APP_NAME}/ I get a redirect to /404 - but if I open the API docs {HOST}/api/content/{OLD_APP_NAME}/docs I get all the URL of the content
I guess there is a link to a contributor-object and if the app will be deleted by another owner instead of the creator account then it gets just unlinked from the current owner…
In the admin interface I have removed the default adminuser (from the initial config file) and if I have a look into the contributor section, there is an owner-entry with the name “- not found -”
It’s actually not critical for us (on development machine only) - if I have more time I can try to figure it out
