Migrate old(er) Authentik on seperate VM to new install on a K8s cluster

[echo current]

Hey!

I'm in the process of migrating an older ( and somewhat broken ) installation of Authentik, which is run on a VM in a Proxmox host.
It should be decommissioned, and I want to back-up it's Applications & Providers and move them to the newest version ( 2023.1.2 ) on a 3 node K8s cluster.

But it seems the functionality that could've helped me with this, has been removed as of: https://goauthentik.io/docs/releases/2022.2#removal-of-integrated-backup

What would be the right way to ease this process? Or is the only option to re-create everything manually?

depending on which version you're on, you can export all objects into a blueprint which allows you to automate the configuration with the new instance, otherwise you can do a Postgres database dump and import it into the new setup, which is the same as the backup above did
