Hello,
I was running a Strapi admin instance on Railway under the Hobby plan, connected to a PostgreSQL database. Recently, I noticed that the data no longer appears on my website. When I logged into the admin panel and connected to the database, I found that the data was missing.
What could be the reason for this, and is there any way to recover the lost data?

Click your Postgres service in Railway and look for the "Backups" tab. If you see a row there, click Restore.
Ensure your DATABASE_URL hasn't changed. Sometimes Strapi reverts to a "Local" SQLite database if the Postgres variables fail to load, making it look like your data is gone when it’s actually just not connecting.
