How to restore my Immich server, lost all user data

Ok, as I was saying before. I have a backup of UPLOAD_LOCATION/library/<userID> from my old Immich instance. With my new Immich instance can I just move the folders from the old UPLOAD_LOCATION/library/<userID> location to the new one and change the user IDs as necessary?
