"Hi Railway Support, I accidentally lost production data because my SQLite database was running on ephemeral storage without a Volume.
Earlier today, a deployment overwritten my database.db file. I have now updated my code to use Railway Volumes to prevent this in the future.
However, is there any way for an admin to check if a snapshot of the container's ephemeral storage from before Jan 30, 03:00 GMT+2 exists? I am on the free tier but this data is vital for my system.
Thanks,
Snir.

Unfortunately, we don't maintain any snapshots or backups of ephemeral container storage. When a container redeploys, any data written to the filesystem outside of a mounted volume is permanently lost with no way to recover it. This applies regardless of plan tier.
