Hi guys, I'm looking to create a fresh datahub instance in another machine with the same metadata information in my local instance (ex: tags, glossaries, descriptions) without having to manually re-enter them in the new instance. Therefore, is there any way I can pass these tags, glossaries, etc through a recipe file similar to how we add a source connector for ingestion?

The
datahub docker quickstart
command has a few options for backup/restore. We don’t yet have a recipe source that can pull from datahub and put it into another datahub instance
f
Oh okay. Can you elaborate more on the
datahub docker quickstart
command please?

datahub docker quickstart
command is used to spin up a datahub instance locally. More details here. How do you create your datahub instance ?
datahub docker quickstart
or any other way ?

Hey - its not possible to ingest tags, glossaries from one datahub instance to another through recipe file. However, you can certainly backup metadata (from older datahub instance) and restore it (to newer datahub instance ) using a normal MySQL dump and then restore indices. More details here - https://datahubproject.io/docs/how/backup-datahub/

alright ill take a look at this and let you know if there are any more further inquiries. Thank you 😊 @hundreds-photographer-13496
