{! backend/administration/CLI_tasks/general_cli_task_info.include !}

Transfer config from file to DB.

!!! note You need to add the following to your config before executing this command:

```elixir
config :pleroma, configurable_from_database: true
```

=== "OTP"

```sh
./bin/pleroma_ctl config migrate_to_db
```

=== "From Source"

```sh
mix pleroma.config migrate_to_db
```

Transfer config from DB to config/env.exported_from_db.secret.exs

!!! note In-Database configuration will still be applied after executing this command unless you set the following in your config:

```elixir
config :pleroma, configurable_from_database: false
```

To delete transferred settings from database optional flag -d can be used. <env> is prod by default.

=== "OTP" sh ./bin/pleroma_ctl config migrate_from_db [--env=<env>] [-d]

=== "From Source" sh mix pleroma.config migrate_from_db [--env=<env>] [-d]

Dump all of the config settings defined in the database

=== "OTP"

```sh
 ./bin/pleroma_ctl config dump
```

=== "From Source"

```sh
mix pleroma.config dump
```

List individual configuration groups in the database

=== "OTP"

```sh
 ./bin/pleroma_ctl config groups
```

=== "From Source"

```sh
mix pleroma.config groups
```

Dump the saved configuration values for a specific group

e.g., this shows all the settings under :instance

=== "OTP"

```sh
./bin/pleroma_ctl config dump instance
```

=== "From Source"

```sh
mix pleroma.config dump instance
```
