To back up your spaces and data to a self-hosted network, you need to have a network configuration. If you don’t run your own network yet, see this how-to guide.
Our contributors are already working on creating a Docker image to simplify the setup of self-hosted infrastructure. You can join by following the discussion on our GitHub page.
We strongly recommend using dedicated identities for each network. If you already have an identity in Anytype Network and want to switch to a self-hosted network, export all your spaces, and import them into a new identity after switching the network mode.
Please note that all your devices should be manually switched to the same self-hosted network.
