Suppose i upload a bunch of photos and albums into the paid official Ente cloud, but later decide i want to run a self-hosted instance.

Can i export and then import the cloud data into my self-hosted instance?

Is it just a mater of using the cli on the official API endpoint to export locally, and then again the cli on the self-hosted API to import from the local export? Any docs page detailing the steps?

Yes, it is possible to export your data from the official Ente cloud and import it into your self-hosted instance using the CLI tool.

You can use Ente's CLI to export your data and the exports are incremental. The CLI tool is available on GitHub at https://github.com/ente-io/ente/tree/main/cli#export. For instructions on installing the Ente CLI, see the README available on Github at https://github.com/ente-io/ente/tree/main/cli/README.md.

You can find documentation on how to use the Ente CLI for managing self-hosted instances at /self-hosting/administration/cli.
