As stated. I stood up about 8 containers using docker desktop. Eventually I realized Portainer would be more useful and they now have an app for iphone. Once I installed it, portainer has “limited access” to my containers because they were created outside of portainer. Is there a way to fix this or do I have to re-build these in Portainer?

If so, I have a few Docker containers that I need database data from that I really don’t want to lose. Is there a way to back up the data, and then re-create the same container from a backup in Portainer?

Still new to docker.

    Portainer stores its own version of compose files in a specific place. I believe you can just copy your compose files into that place.
