How to back up your Simkl library

  1. Open your account on this site and connect Simkl in the Trackers section: the site shows a code, you enter it on simkl.com while signed in there. Once — the connection stays.
  2. Come back to this page. There is nothing to type — the connection already says whose library to read, so the Export button is all there is.
  3. Click Export. The whole library is read through the Simkl API — films and series, with their ratings and watch dates — and each title already carries its IMDb and TMDB IDs.
  4. The Kinopoisk IDs are looked up on top of that, through Wikidata — they go into the JSON, ready if you ever need these films back on Kinopoisk.
  5. Download the JSON backup: the whole library in one file — ratings, watch dates, IMDb and TMDB IDs and the found Kinopoisk IDs. The Letterboxd, IMDb and Trakt files sit right beside it.
