Update from octopi 1.16 to 1.18?

[BC320]

What is the problem?

Is there a way to do this update without a complete reinstall of the the 1.18? I don't want to loose my plugin information like APIs and such.
I need to update to 1.18 so I can update to octoprint 1.7.3 from 1.6.0

What did you already try to solve it?

I tried googling it but so far can't seem to answer my question.

Have you tried running in safe mode?

Yes

Did running in safe mode solve the problem?

No

Create a backup of OctoPrint from inside OctoPrint's settings, then reinstall OctoPi (re-flash the SD card) and then restore your backup. All your settings & plugins will be preserved.

[BC320]

To be clear, this back up will contain APIs and other keys I need to access 3rd party applications. Correct?

[Charlie_Powell]

It contains everything you've configured inside OctoPrint, which would include API keys for 3rd party apps, yes.

[BC320]

Well this sucks.
Backup did NOT keep all the plugins or plugin data for 3rd party applications.

[Charlie_Powell]

It definitely should restore the plugins and plugins configuration data, that's how it is intended to work and there's no known issues with this system.
