Description of my issue: Hello i seen in the release notes for 3.10.2 that dropbox backups could be automated. is this done by a cron or do i set the up in the configuration in akeeba backup?

i currently have my akeeba backup configured to backup to dropbox which works great, but i would like to know the easiest way to have it automated.

Thanks for a great product.

Hello Tim,

yes you can automate your backups.
Actually, it's very easy. Just setup a backup profile to upload your backups to Dropbox (or use the one that already exists).
Then you have to setup a service that will perform this backup automatically, without your interaction.
You can find several important information in this page of the manual.
