DIM Sync
DIM Sync backs up and syncs your tags, loadouts, notes, and settings to DIM's own cloud service, and between different versions of DIM running on different devices. Thanks to the contributions of our OpenCollective sponsors, we have been able to set up our own servers and a DIM service for storing your data in the cloud. This system doesn't require a separate login and it automatically syncs every time you use DIM.
Note that if you have DIM Sync on, any data import will overwrite your existing data. If DIM Sync is on, that overwrites what's in DIM Sync. Keep in mind that when you turn on DIM Sync, we do not automatically import your existing data, so you should manually import the backup we create if you want to use the data that was previously local only.
DIM Sync syncs your data across all different versions of DIM - if you make a change in Beta, you'll see it in the App version, and vice versa. If you don't want to use DIM Sync, you can disable it in Settings and delete all your data from our servers. Just know that if you do that, your data will only be stored locally on your device so it will get lost at some point when the browser decides to empty storage or you clear browsing history.
If you unlink your account from Bungie.net and link it to another Bungie.net account, you will lose access to all of your saved data in DIM sync. Please back up your data before unlinking your account from Bungie.net, and reimport it afterwards, or contact us on our Discord and we can manually restore access to your data.
- Enabling DIM Sync will automatically start a download of a backup file. This contains your settings/tags/notes. If any of your information goes missing but you have this file, don't panic! Bring your backup file (dim-data.json) to the ⚙️ Settings menu and use Import Data Backup.
- If you want, you can manually save a copy of your data beforehand, with Download Data Backup in the ⚙️ Settings menu.
- If you enable DIM Sync and notice that all your data is gone, just import the backup that was created.
- This User Guide and the README contain a lot of information; please take your time and read them carefully.
