2025.1: Backing Up into 2025!

What currently remains the same:

  • Any automatic backup system you’ve used up to this point
  • hassio.backup_full (HAOS/Supervised) action/service. Still available with or without encryption.
  • backup.create for core and container. While option-less, should still provide no encryption.

What was added:

  • A new automatic backup system in the UI for local (on the pc), local (on a network share), and remote (nabu casa cloud).
  • The ability to choose a location for backups on the hassio backup services (this may have existed before by a few versions, can’t remember).
  • hassio.backup_partial(HAOS/Supervised) action/service (Might have been there before, can’t remember). Available with or without encryption.

What was changed:

  • Backup before you update question has now been removed from the UI (which means no automatic backup before updating).
  • Manual update button in the UI does not offer a way to perform unencrypted backups.
