Can you pls share the paths of folders to be backed up?, especially the raw image files

Immich has documentation here: https://docs.immich.app/administration/backup-and-restore/

All relevant files are stored in your UPLOAD_LOCATION which you defined in your .env file (if you deployed immich via Docker Compose). The files you absolutely need to back up are in:

- UPLOAD_LOCATION/upload ← Contains your images

- UPLOAD_LOCATION/backups ← Contains your postgres dumps

You should also back up these two directories:

- UPLOAD_LOCATION/library

- UPLOAD_LOCATION/profile

They're not strictly necessary, but it makes it easier to restore the same setup.

Thank you, that's very useful
