      Hi,

      I use Opera on Android.

      When I export my data from Opera services from
      https://auth.opera.com/account/edit-profile/security
      page, what data exactly exported?

      Is "Speed Dial" data exported in order?
      Is grouped "Open Pages" (or page gallery?) data exported in order?
      What else?

      And how can I restore this data on a new Android device?

      Thanks in advance!

        @Leghy Most probably your data on opera.com services and pages, such your posts on the forum, your comments on the blog,, things like that.

          Thanks for the quick reply but it's not about the forum and opera.com at all. That's a different topic.

          I need exact answer not just "probably". This is sensitive data. Everyone need to know what's happening there but no exact info at all.

          Hello Opera!
          Please tell me what are you doing with our sensitive data? We don't want to lose them!

            @Leghy I did a little test and got a zip file with a few .json files with data from auth.opera.com, sync.opera.com, addons.opera.com and cashback.opera.com.
            Will only be able to open the files later to see what's in them.

            Doesn't seem to contain any data from your Opera installations.

              Thanks very, very much!

              As I see the syncronization in browsers are terrible as mixing everything. You delete some data on the device than a sync put it back. Can't edit data in the cloud or in the zip file. Moreover there is no any user guide or a cheap YT video at all.
              Developers look lame as living in a box outside of reality.

              (Original questions:
              Is "Speed Dial" data exported in order?
              Is grouped "Open Pages" (or page gallery?) data exported in order?
              What else?
              And how can I restore this data on a new Android device?)

                @Leghy As far as I know, synchronisation only stores what speed dials, opened pages you have but not how it's ordered.

                  @Leghy To restore data you need to login to Sync in the new device/installation

                    Okay. I "talking" too much about sync... Sorry!

                    The main question is about exported data from Opera services from
                    https://auth.opera.com/account/edit-profile/security
                    page, what data exactly exported?
                    Etc.

                      @Leghy It would be easier for you to just export it to see what data you get.

                        @Leghy Basically, there is a file for each Opera service.

                        sync.json contains data from sync.opera.com

                        auth.json has your info on auth.opera.com

                        addons.json shows your data in addons.opera.com

                        cashback.json shows your data in cashback.opera.com

                          Million thanks for this wise advice! 🤦🏻‍♂️

                          There is a 2.5MB sync.json file. I have no days to read through...

                            It sounds better. Thanks!

                            And then what can I do with these json files?

                            How can I restore it if necessary?

                              @Leghy It's just for information basically. It's just for you to know what data they have stored about you.

                                @Leghy "Hey! When exporting from Opera, it usually includes bookmarks, passwords, and some browser settings—but things like Speed Dial or open pages might not keep their exact order. You can restore most of it by signing into Opera on your new device and syncing your account."
