Hi @praveenprem are you using Hoppscotch with an account?

Hi @praveenprem are you using Hoppscotch with an account?

@thetronjohnson Unfortunately not, for security reasons I'm not allowed to use anything that logs activity to the cloud. It was all saved on the device and I didn't even bother making a backup. I've assumed it saved the data to the file system.

Hi @praveenprem, can you confirm whether you cleared the browser's local storage?

[praveenprem]

Hi @liyasthomas I don't recall clearing up the browser storage, but I'm using the Arc browser with multiple spaces so not sure if the app decided to change the space its using 😕

[liyasthomas]

Hoppscotch by default store and persist all data in browser’s localstorage. Since cloud sync was disabled in your case — chances are locally stored data is wiped out manually or via any extension or browser workflows.

We’d be happy to assist you if this happens again. Let me know when f you can reproduce the same behaviour again and let us know.

Thanks @liyasthomas, I'll update the thread of this happens again. I'll make sure to backup the stuff this time 🤣
