# Restore The Restore screen allows you to import one or more app metadata records that were previously exported or backed up. You will need to know the passphrase that was used to export or back up the app metadata record(s) in order to decrypt and import them. The Restore screen has identical functionality to the [Import app](/appfigurate-user-guide/import-app.md) screen. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
