Migrating data from SurrealDB to SurrealDB Cloud

SurrealDB Cloud is a hosted version of SurrealDB, providing a fully managed, scalable, and secure database solution. This guide will help you migrate your existing SurrealDB Instance to SurrealDB Cloud .

Exporting and importing data

1. Export your current data as a .surql (SurrealQL) file. You can do this using the surreal export command in the terminal:

# Example export command to export data to a file called `export.surql` in the downloads directory.
surreal export --conn <connection-url> --user root --pass secret --ns test --db test downloads/export.surql

2. This will create a file called export.surql in the current directory.

3. You can now import this file into your SurrealDB Cloud Instance.

surreal import --conn <connection-url> --user root --pass secret --ns test --db test downloads/export.surql
