I lost my data after migrating from the Scratch Pad
You are experiencing one of the following issues

- I was on the Scratch Pad, and my app updated. Now, I can’t see my collections or any other of my data.
- I lost my environment variables after migrating from the Scratch Pad.

What to expect
- The lightweight API client doesn’t have collections and environments.
- The migration option is available when you sign in to Postman from the Scratch Pad.
