i need to change a string type attribute's size. and afaik, in appwrite we have to delete the attribute first to change it's size. means data loss. i have many real user documents in the collection that i can't afford losing. so is there any way i can backup the collection from where i can restore later?
Appwrite: Cloud
Summary
Developers are looking to change a string attribute's size in Appwrite, but are worried about data loss as it needs to be deleted first. They are inquiring about backing up the collection for a restore later.
Solution: Unfortunately, Appwrite Cloud does not offer a built-in backup feature. Developers might need to explore external backup solutions or implement manual backup methods for this scenario.
