I just started using OPNsense a couple of days ago.  NICE!

I was trying to configure automatic backups on Google Drive.  I couldn't find current directions so I muddled through using https://wiki.opnsense.org/manual/how-tos/cloud_backup.html and the trial and error method.

I have some steps that might be helpful.  I typed the steps in OneNote.  I tried printing it in pdf form but it's too big to attach.  I guess I will post images of the steps.  Not ideal, sorry.

If the steps don't work, I'm afraid I won't be much help because I am new to this myself.  :)

This is crazy!  I cannot beleive how complicated this is.  The directions on the site skip so many screens that one has no way of understanding this.  I was hoping this would be an easy option but it looks like people are better off going manual backup.  SI spent over 30 minutes trying to do this with no luck.  Hopefully, someone will update the instructions or at least provide a video tutorial.  I dont see any documentation on how to complete or what to choose from the screens below!

So created a p12 and defined as webserver and Project Editor.  Created folder and shared to email but no dice!

Thanks a ton @rcrules! The effort made by folks like you make it significantly easier for novices like me, to get the best out of this awesome platform.

Thx man!
Today was a nightmare ! your guide is clear !  :) :)
