I’m trying to migrate from HAOS to HA Container but that’s no way to restore the backup. Is there any other way to do this?

    There’s no way to cleanly do it between hassio and core due to the add-ons vs integrations thing. If you’re just worried about entities, and don’t mind a bit of manual work to cleanup on the other side of things, just copy the entire home assistant directory from the host machine.

      I’m surprised this still comes up. There’s like one extra step to adding the same functionality.

        I’d say it’s not that trivial and makes you the maintainer of your add-ons. Of course it gives you more flexibility, but you do have to manage them/update yourself.

        You must not be talking about HA Core. Because some of those add-on additions are just straight up impossible for Core, as far as my experience.

        Except I can run other stuff that is not provided through addons. But granted; most use cases are covered with addons.
