Automated Daily Snapshot uses an unknown service

Configuration Blueprints

I’m struggling with getting an automated backup running. I’ve tried two different solutions, with the same result for both, an error that I can’t troubleshoot:

This is from the blueprint exchange, but it’s the same error I was getting with the previous functionality. Here’s the yaml:

alias: Automated Daily Snapshot (3am)
description: ""
use_blueprint:
  path: vorion/create-automated-backups-every-day.yaml
  input:
    trigger_time: "03:00:00"
    send_notification: true
    notify_device: f6c2366187c7979acc525ad0219583b5

I have googled this pretty extensively and cannot figure out how to move forward. Happy to keep troubleshooting, I just don’t know what the next step should be. If anyone can point me in the right direction, I’d appreciate it. Thanks very much!

How did you install HA? hassio.snapshot_full requires HA OS or HA Supervised, it is not availabe on HA Container (docker install) or HA Core (venv)

3

Installed on an Rpi 4 with the standard setup that you get from the imager. I did it that because I understood that was the easiest way to get all the components?

One other thing, I am running HA on an SSD, as opposed to the SD card.

Ok, I see already, you are using an outdated blueprint

Change hassio.snapshot_full to hassio.backup_full

It is really long time ago that snapshots were renamed to backups

Ahhh, ok, gotcha. Will give it whirl. Thank you for the assist!

There are add-ons that might work for you as well…
They provide copying the backup to another location so it is accessible if you get a total crash and need to start over. They also provide a clean way to schedule.

And another:

I have a video about it if that helps as well…

Ok! This worked last night, so thank you again!

Perfect! I wanted to get the basic one running first and this was exactly where I wanted to go next so I appreciate the perfectly timed info! Great user name, too. Thanks much!
