Add-on: Home Assistant Google Drive Backup

You most likely won’t get an answer… :wink:

Just for future reference:
This is a big project, with a lot of people involved in development and issue handling. To handle all this, it is necessary to have some kind of work flow implemented. In this case this means, the handling of issues is done via Github, and only there.

So the normal way for you to investigate an issue you’re having is as follows:

  • Search in the forum (here), if someone already has this issue and made a post about it. In cases like this, where changes were introduced by an actual update, the comments under the blog post are the best starting point.
  • Nothing found in the forum? Move over to Github and check for an issue about your problem. The more people that use the addOn where the issue is coming from, the higher the chance that somebody already made an issue. If so, step in and try to help solving the issue by reporting your errors and faults, what you have done and so on. If somebody had already the same sympthoms, don’t put a post “I have that, too” under it, that’s not necessary and in the end only slows down the solution process.
  • Nothing found? Open a thread here in the forum with your problem, someone from the supporting people will likely step in. This helps to keep the issues in Github a little sorted, maybe it’s not an issue at all and someone alredy has a solution.
  • Still nothing? Then open an issue yourself. :slight_smile:

I know, this is kind of a strict way to handle this, but as a developer you need to set some boundaries.

And last but not least, please use the correct thread to ask in, in your case this would be this thread:

Thanks! :slight_smile:
