Thank you, Thomas, for your prompt response to this.



We would like to know following things:

  1.  How much part of the plugins method is done?
  2.  How soon we can start the integration?
  3.  Is there any plugin method's documentation already available? If yes, could you please share?



Regards,

Prashant

We would like to know if there is a detailed backup/restore API guide available that could serve as a good starting point for our engineering team. Could you please assist us with this? We have already reviewed the REST APIs.



Thanks for your interest in supporting Proxmox VE.



We are in progress of adding a way where external backup provider can provide a plugin to hook safely and correctly into our backup APIs, see:

This includes two example plugins to showcase how it would be used.



We would be open to fast-track this effort for inclusion with feedback from backup vendors. While there are other ways to hook one in, these are not nice and can cause problems - so in the long term we expect that most/all backup vendors will switch to this plugin method, at least for supported setups.



best regards

Thomas
