I have pgAdmin version 1.16.1

So, for exporting table dumm I do:

Right click on table, then in menu click on backup, then in Format choice Plain and save file as some_name.sql

Then I remove table.

Ok, now I need import table backup some_name.sql into database.

How to do this? I can't find how to import table's .sql dump into database using pgAdmin.

Can you help me please?

  1. In pgAdmin, select the required target schema in object tree (databases->your_db_name->schemas->your_target_schema)
  2. Click on Plugins/PSQL Console (in top-bar)
  3. Write \i /path/to/yourfile.sql
  4. Press enter
