Step 1: Configure AWS S3 Details

Navigate to the configuration page by going to "/admin/config/content/DbForm" in your Drupal admin interface.

On the configuration page, you'll find settings to configure your AWS S3 details:

Save your AWS S3 configuration.

Step 2: Schedule Database Exports

Configure the export schedule by selecting your preferred backup frequency (e.g., daily, weekly, custom).

Define the time and frequency for automated exports to suit your needs.

Save your export schedule settings.

Step 3: Export Your Database

Return to the main module interface.

Initiate a manual database export or wait for the scheduled export to run automatically.

You can also initiate a manual database export directly by using the "/db-export-s3" route. Simply navigate to "/db-export-s3" in your browser or through your Drupal admin interface.

Monitor the export progress and verify that your database backup is securely stored in your configured AWS S3 bucket. If needed, you can now also download your database directly by using the "/db-export-s3-download" route.

Before exporting with "s3_db_export," create a "tmp" folder in "default/files/tmp." Access your site's files directory, create the folder, and set proper permissions for smooth, secure database exports.
