In this case we’re installing this on a fresh server and we’ll be installing Rocket.Chat as a Snap and using Caddy as a reverse proxy. Caddy will also deal with issuing SSL certificates via Let’s Encrypt. With this you’ll be able to get Rocket.Chat up and running within ~10 minutes, from there you can go on and make further server configuration changes for security…

This is a simple tutorial to backup and restore, or backup and migrate a Snap based installation of Rocket.Chat.
