For Google Drive, if you’re a G Suite customer, consider using Vault (if available for your account) for additional protection in the event your web site is hacked and your Google Drive backups deleted.
I think another possibility is to share the UpdraftPlus folder with another Google user, and in the second account’s Drive, regularly copy the contents of the shared folder to a different folder only accessible to the second account/user. You could probably automate the copying with a Google Script and trigger (e.g. daily). I will test this and try to come up with a simple script.@dnutbourne, I joined the Group as suggested (and left the Group shortly thereafter, as recommended). When I went to UpdraftPlus settings to redo authentication/authorization for the web app to access my Drive, I noticed the “Google Drive: Account is not authorized” message had disappeared. Out of curiosity, I checked my UpdraftPlus folder, and it contained backup files from last evening (6/4/2017)! UpdraftPlus is configured for daily backup…
I will keep an eye on this to see if backup files continue to transfer to my Drive. I guess this is tentatively resolved. Seems like the experience could be smoother, but maybe this is related to Google tightening the OAuth screws, since the recent phishing scam targeting OAuth authorization…?Thank you!
