Hi Railway Support,
My free trial has expired, but I need to take a backup of my database before the project is deleted.
Project Name: rouh-monorepo
Database Host: switchyard.proxy.rlwy.net
Database Port: 55110
Database User: root
Database Name: railway
Could you please temporarily reactivate access so I can export my data? Thank you!
Best regards,
Surajpal

railway doesn't provide temporary access for expired trials to backup your database, you need to upgrade to the hobby or pro plan once upgraded, redeploy your mysql service and your data will still be there.
then you can export it using mysqldump -h switchyard.proxy.rlwy.net -P 55110 -u root -p railway > backup.sql or any mysql client like MySQL Workbench or DBeaver, you have 30 days from trial expiration before Railway permanently deletes the data, so act quickly!
