Import photos of a previous Immich installation

Hello,

I recently had to migrate my server. I kept the original folder where the files are stored, I mean, the photos/uploaded folder is the same, as specified in the docker-compose:

 immich-server:
    container_name: immich_server
    image: ghcr.io/immich-app/immich-server:${IMMICH_VERSION:-release}
    command: [ "start.sh", "immich" ]
    volumes:
      - ${UPLOAD_LOCATION}:/usr/src/app/upload


The problem is that I didnt keep the previous database, so I don't have my user and the photos are not imported.

Is there any way to tell Immich to re scan the files folder for having all the media again?

Thank you 🙂
