# Managing Backups

Moving to a new group but don't want to set everything up again?

Guardian saves your group settings automatically. If Guardian is removed and re-added to the same group, your settings are restored without any reconfiguration needed.

**Moving to a new group?** Use **/export** to export your current settings, then **/import** in the new group to apply them.

**Checking your backups** Send **/backups** in DM with Guardian to see all saved backups.

**Public vs. private backups** By default, backups are private and can only be imported by the person who exported them. If you want another admin to be able to import the settings, you can make the backup public.
