My PostgreSQL database was wiped after my plan expired and I just resubscribed. Is there any way to recover the data? Project: web-production-c872d. This is urgent.

The data is still there Railway doesn't wipe volumes immediately on expiry. Since you've resubscribed, here's how to confirm and recover access:
Go to Railway → your Postgres service → Variables tab → copy the DATABASE_URL
Open TablePlus (free) or pgAdmin → new connection → paste the URL → connect
You should see all your tables and data intact.
Mmm If the connection works but your app still can't connect, redeploy your app service so it picks up the fresh database connection after resubscription.
If you still can't connect at all, go to Postgres service → three dots → Restart and the volume remounts and connections restore within 30 seconds.
