    Heyas,
    I wanted to know if there is a way how i can set up individual backup times for my apps. For example, I'd like to have my vaultwarden backuped much more often than my WordPress, which basically never changes.

    This is currently not possible. The backup schedule is only for the whole platform or backups for specific apps can be disabled.

    @nebulon is it possible to use a cron script and the cloudron CLI to backup up a specific app ?
    e.g. cloudron backup create --app vaultwarden.domain.tld

    if so, the full system backup could be set to a low frequency, and use cron for apps which need higher frequency.
    Or disable backups for e.g. Wordpress and then do similar to create even lower frequency backups

    yes that is of course possible to use the API or cli to do so if that is run by some other entity/server on a regular schedule.

    If I’m not mistaken, a backup is created when an app is updated regardless whether backups are disabled for the app, so you can turn off backups for your WP site and still have backups to revert to in case it’s needed. This should let you increase the backup frequency for other sensitive apps like vaultwarden.

    yeah, probably, but i would like to be able to backup the vaultwarden app whenever there was made an addition to the database. it eaily can end up fatal if passwords get lost, that was why i was asking. making a backup every 30 minutes for example would lower the risk someone is loosing something, in case things go south

    @RazielKanos Cloudron does hourly increments, not in minutes, so you can backup the app once an hour at most with the current settings. What service can’t be recovered if you still have access to the email/phone/recovery codes?
