How do I sync: bookmarks, database connections, break points

I recently moved to another workstation.

I had sync turned on with Rider & Webstorm on my old machine.  Things were synced to my account.

When I went to the new machine, cloned my git repos and enabled sync, the following things were not synced.

- bookmarks

- database connections

- breakpoints

How do I get these to sync?

---

I have four IDEs in use: Rider, WebStorm, PyCharm, IntelliJ with more than a dozen projects each and many database connections setup (Snowflake, Postgres, MongoDB - hosted in a cloud env)

It would take a month to recreate all these.  I super bad need them all in my new env.

I can copy over directories that were never part of a git repo if needed.

What files hold these settings that I could copy over? (that is if sync is broken and does not sync the above)

The project configurations are stored in the .idea folder, in the project root directory. Have you synced the configs in Git?

You can sync the directory-based settings through VCS. This documentation explains which types could be synchronized. IDE uses the .gitignore to control the synchronization process.
