Restore a full data dump for MySQL and PostgreSQL

You can restore data dumps by means of the mysql client utility for MySQL, or pg_restore or psql for PostgreSQL. The pg_restore option is used for custom-format pg_dump -Fc or directory-format pg_dump -Fd dumps. The psql option is used for SQL-format dumps.

If you see no restore options in the context menu, verify that you use a correct JDBC URL for the data source.

  1. In the Database tool window (View | Tool Windows | Database), right-click a schema or a database and navigate to:

    • Restore with "mysql": for MySQL data sources. In the Path to mysql field, specify the path to the MySQL executable (for example, C:\Soft\mysql-8.0.19-winx64\bin\mysql.exe).

    • Restore with "pg_restore": for PostgreSQL data sources. The pg_restore option is available for the most of database objects except for the data source level.

    • Restore with "psql": for PostgreSQL data sources. The psql option is available for the most of database objects except for table and schema levels.

    • Restore: for PostgreSQL data sources. Includes two tabs: pg_restore and psql.

  2. In the Restore with <dump_tool> dialog, specify the path to the restore tool executable in the Path to <dump_tool> field.

    (Optional) Edit the command-line options in the lower part of the dialog.

  3. Click Run.
