I ma on Umb 13 and just downloaded my git repo to a new computer. Ofcoarse it does not have the local DB so when I do a build/debug in VS it just loads a blank page. How can I force it to build the local DB so I can import all my stuff from a uSync export backup?

You can set the

Umbraco:Cms:Unattended

settings along with

uSync:Settings:ImportOnFirstBoot

to do this!

json
"Umbraco": {
  "CMS": {
    "Unattended": {
      "InstallUnattended": true,
      "UnattendedUserName": "Admin",
      "UnattendedUserEmail": "admin@example.com",
      "UnattendedUserPassword": "1234567890"
    }
  }
},
"uSync": {
  "Settings": {
    "ImportOnFirstBoot": true
  }
}

That seems to have worked. Thank you

Another way is just to remove the connection string and it will magically reappear with a brand new SQLite DB 🙂
