Overview<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This page will guide you to add Google Drive as your backup location in Softaculous.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Note<\/strong> : Backup on Google Drive feature has been added since Softaculous version 5.0.0.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The following guide will show you how to add Google Drive backup location in Softaculous.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1) Go to Softaculous Enduser -> Edit Settings -> Click on Add Backup Location<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2) Select Protocol as Google Drive<\/strong> and fill in the location name and backup location.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Note<\/strong> : Backup Location, if left empty, Softaculous will create the backups in a default directory created by Softaculous named as Softaculous Auto Installer<\/strong> in your Google Drive account. If you enter a backup location, that folder will be created in this Softaculous Auto Installer Directory and the backups will be created there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3) Submit the form by clicking on the button Add Backup Location<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
