> Hello I would like to backup mysql database through Duplicati, so i searched here and from what i understand the correct way will be to run a script to make a dump, before the task of backup the dump. Am I correct? So, Im not an advanced user and honestly i dont understand what i have to do to make it work. Is it possible for someone to explain the correct steps and provide a script to make it work? I run Windows, so i assume it will be a bat file. Thanks in advance.
