Question

How to transfer a snapshot between two droplets under one account?

May I know if I can transfer a snapshot from one droplet to another under the same account? As it seems to offer the option to transfer a snapshot between two accounts (with different emails) but not between two droplets under the same account.

Thanks!

Hi @neifion,

Yes, you can restore a Snapshot on a new Droplet. Go to cloud.digitalocean.com/ then click on Images. In there you’ll see your Snapshot.

On the Snapshot, you’ll see a More button. Click on it and then restore it on a droplet of your choosing.
