Stickies Database file location on Catalina 10.15

Could anyone help me find the location of the Stickies Database on Catalina? I have the file in my backup from Mojave but cannot find the file on Catalina (~/Library/). Thank you in advance.

I found a solution to this. If you have the old stickies database file,

  • delete the new database folders
    • ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.Stickies
    • ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.Stickies.migrated
  • once these are deleted, ensure stickies application is quit,
  • copy stickiesdatabase to ~/Library
  • open stickies application. The database will be converted on opening.
