How to easily backup your Home Assistant configuration to an S3 bucket.

Steps

  1. Go to Supervisor
  2. Add-on Store
  3. 3 dot menu - Repositories
  4. Add https://github.com/mikebell/hassio-backup-s3
  5. Close

Once the addon is installed you can click on it and follow the up to date readme file to configure your IAM user and policy.

I then use hass-auto-backup with Node-RED to automate the process and send a message to my Discord server when complete.
