Ansible playbook for configuration backup

[guest34985]

Hi everyone,

I am looking for a solution to retrieve the current OPNsense configuration from an Ansible host to have a backup. For my MikroTik devices I use net_get and sftp as a protocol in a playbook.

Is it possible to trigger a configuration backup via SSH (cli) and the fetch the xml file afterwards?

Thanks and best regards

I'd have a closer look at the os-api-backup plugin.

Thanks for the info. For now I simply fetch the /conf/config.xml via a simple Ansible playbook. But I will look into it.
