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
00:00:45.502 --> 00:00:47.298
Here you can see many options

15
00:00:47.377 --> 00:00:49.815
including upload to Google Drive.

16
00:00:51.907 --> 00:00:53.204
Once that's selected

17
00:00:53.317 --> 00:00:54.706
choose Configure.

18
00:00:56.386 --> 00:00:57.832
In order for our web site

19
00:00:57.856 --> 00:00:59.478
to talk to  Google Drive

20
00:00:59.541 --> 00:01:01.799
we need to authenticate it.

21
00:01:02.552 --> 00:01:04.331
Click on the authentication button

22
00:01:04.746 --> 00:01:06.198
and a popup will open.

23
00:01:06.238 --> 00:01:08.383
for you to login
to Google Drive.

24
00:01:09.884 --> 00:01:11.884
Give Akeeba Backup the permissions

25
00:01:13.162 --> 00:01:15.162
and click on the complete

26
00:01:15.215 --> 00:01:17.215
authentication button.

27
00:01:18.622 --> 00:01:20.683
The directory that we want to store it in

28
00:01:20.875 --> 00:01:24.020
is by default the root of our
Google Drive  account

29
00:01:24.521 --> 00:01:26.521
but we can store it anywhere we want

30
00:01:26.623 --> 00:01:28.927
including a subdirectory.

31
00:01:30.016 --> 00:01:32.016
As you can see some tokens

32
00:01:32.064 --> 00:01:34.064
has been automatically entered.

33
00:01:35.570 --> 00:01:37.680
Once you have configured 
Google Drive

34
00:01:38.024 --> 00:01:40.024
Save and Close your configuration

35
00:01:40.215 --> 00:01:43.483
and you are now ready to 
perform your first backup

36
00:01:43.703 --> 00:01:46.643
with the files being saved in 
Google Drive.

37
00:01:48.992 --> 00:01:50.758
Once the backup has completed

38
00:01:51.258 --> 00:01:53.258
we can go to our Manage Backups

39
00:01:53.611 --> 00:01:55.000
and here we can see

40
00:01:55.088 --> 00:01:56.792
the backup just took place

41
00:01:57.765 --> 00:01:59.154
it is a Remote Backup

42
00:02:00.335 --> 00:02:03.381
and the files are stored remotely.

43
00:02:04.369 --> 00:02:06.931
From this link we are able to

44
00:02:06.976 --> 00:02:08.000
bring the backup

45
00:02:08.108 --> 00:02:09.652
back from Google Drive

46
00:02:09.820 --> 00:02:12.114
directly on to our web server.

47
00:02:12.670 --> 00:02:15.077
Now every time a backup

48
00:02:15.174 --> 00:02:17.490
is performed by Akeeba Backup Professional

49
00:02:17.688 --> 00:02:19.290
the backup file itself

50
00:02:19.644 --> 00:02:20.906
is being stored remotely

51
00:02:21.030 --> 00:02:23.030
in our Google Drive account.
