00:00:10.010 --> 00:00:12.201
One feature of Akeeba Backup Professional

2
00:00:12.340 --> 00:00:14.636
is to allow you to automatically

3
00:00:14.789 --> 00:00:15.603
store the backup

4
00:00:15.605 --> 00:00:17.124
on a remote location.

5
00:00:19.258 --> 00:00:21.258
Google Drive is a very popular option

6
00:00:21.952 --> 00:00:24.187
as it provides you with 15 gigabytes

7
00:00:24.591 --> 00:00:27.231
of cloud storage space free of charge

8
00:00:27.748 --> 00:00:29.021
and it is very simple

9
00:00:29.060 --> 00:00:30.338
with Akeeba Backup Professional

10
00:00:30.621 --> 00:00:32.217
to configure your backups

11
00:00:32.235 --> 00:00:34.629
to be saved in to your 
Google Drive folder.

12
00:00:35.847 --> 00:00:38.633
To begin go to the Configuration

13
00:00:39.025 --> 00:00:42.079
scroll down to the processing engine.

14
00:00:46.365 --> 00:00:48.161
Here you can see many options

15
00:00:48.240 --> 00:00:50.678
including upload to Google Drive.

16
00:00:52.770 --> 00:00:54.067
Once that's selected

17
00:00:54.180 --> 00:00:55.569
choose Configure.

18
00:00:57.249 --> 00:00:58.695
In order for our web site

19
00:00:58.719 --> 00:01:00.341
to talk to  Google Drive

20
00:01:00.404 --> 00:01:02.662
we need to authenticate it.

21
00:01:03.415 --> 00:01:05.194
Click on the authentication button

22
00:01:05.609 --> 00:01:07.061
and a popup will open.

23
00:01:07.101 --> 00:01:09.004
for you to login
to Google Drive.

24
00:01:10.316 --> 00:01:12.316
Give Akeeba Backup the permissions

25
00:01:13.594 --> 00:01:15.594
and click on the complete

26
00:01:15.647 --> 00:01:17.647
authentication button.

27
00:01:19.054 --> 00:01:21.115
The directory that we want to store it in

28
00:01:21.307 --> 00:01:24.452
is by default the root of our
Google Drive  account

29
00:01:25.104 --> 00:01:27.104
but we can store it anywhere we want

30
00:01:27.249 --> 00:01:29.553
including a subdirectory.

31
00:01:30.361 --> 00:01:32.361
As you can see some tokens

32
00:01:32.323 --> 00:01:34.323
has been automatically entered.

33
00:01:36.260 --> 00:01:38.370
Once you have configured 
Google Drive

34
00:01:38.714 --> 00:01:40.714
Save and Close your configuration

35
00:01:40.905 --> 00:01:44.173
and you are now ready to 
perform your first backup

36
00:01:44.393 --> 00:01:47.333
with the files being saved in 
Google Drive.

37
00:01:58.157 --> 00:01:59.923
Once the backup has completed

38
00:02:00.185 --> 00:02:02.185
we can go to our Manage Backups

39
00:02:02.538 --> 00:02:03.927
and here we can see

40
00:02:04.015 --> 00:02:05.719
the backup just took place

41
00:02:06.951 --> 00:02:08.340
it is a Remote Backup

42
00:02:09.348 --> 00:02:12.394
and the files are stored remotely.

43
00:02:13.405 --> 00:02:15.967
From this link we are able to

44
00:02:16.011 --> 00:02:17.035
bring the backup

45
00:02:17.100 --> 00:02:18.644
back from Google Drive

46
00:02:18.769 --> 00:02:21.063
directly on to our web server.

47
00:02:21.576 --> 00:02:23.983
Now every time a backup

48
00:02:24.188 --> 00:02:26.504
is performed by Akeeba Backup Professional

49
00:02:26.616 --> 00:02:28.218
the backup file itself

50
00:02:28.248 --> 00:02:30.045
is being stored remotely

51
00:02:30.022 --> 00:02:32.022
in our Google Drive account.
