backup all messed up

Zeuven7 3 years ago updated by Adrian 3 years ago 4

Hi !

So at some point, I noticed that the last entry on my vehicle was an entry from a year ago, while I had put in gas data a week ago, and many more in the last year.
I checked my Google drive and saw that there were 2 Android folders with fuelio folders inside. One had even multiple vehicle-2 CSVs.
I checked the CSVs to see if one of them still had the data dat got lost. I found that one of the CSVs had an older version (10 versions back) with all the fueling data that wasnt showing up anymore. Just in case i downloaded that CSV version to have a backup.
Then I tried all kind of things trying to restore it without success, untill I found on one of the messages here that Fuelio cannot read any file created, saved or edited by the user.
So now I have an app where i have deleted all vehicle data, and i have downloaded backup files with correct logs and pictures etc.

Is there any way i can still import his data somehow to be back to normal?

Thanks for your time.

If you have CSV file - use Settings / Backup / Import CSV option to read file fromy any location. Google Drive Backup Import option (there only) and Restore All is looking for Drive folders. 

If you are using manual option to import - you are selecting file, folder - Fuelio can read it - you are giving access to that file.


Duplicates - it was quite old issue. You can try to merge files - create one CSV with up-to-date data and import CSV using Import option

Ah thanks! That worked! However images are ofcourse not included in this. I have the original folders with pictures still as a backup. Can I recover these as well? 

Also I'm not able to send data to drive now. 


Have deleted the android/fuelio folder, signed out and in in drive in the app, and get the following error:

Something is wrong with Fuelio's directory / structure on your Drive. Please, Sign Out and Sign in to your Drive account again to fix this issue.

Try to close the app and run it again, then go to Drive Backup.
