Help migrating Vercel-created Neon DB to my Neon account (quota hit; need one-time export)
Hello Neon team,
My Postgres project was created via the Vercel–Neon integration. I no longer use Vercel and want to move the database to my personal Neon account and pay Neon directly.
Two blockers:
1. Projects created/integrated via Vercel cannot be transferred self-serve.
2. I’ve exceeded the Vercel compute quota, so the database is currently blocked from connections (even pg_dump), preventing me from exporting data.
Could you please help with one of the following?
1.Temporarily lift/extend the quota or grant a read-only maintenance window so I can run pg_dump,
OR
2.Provide a one-time logical dump/snapshot of the database
OR
3.Detach/convert the project from the Vercel-managed org and move it into my Neon org so I can enable billing directly and export.
My personal Neon project ID: org-wild-glitter-83470608
Old Vercel-based Neon project ID I need to import: snowy-water-29749332
I’m trying to avoid paying a Vercel subscription just to retrieve my own data once. Thanks a lot for any help you can provide.
Best,
Ivan
