How can I control the destination used when restoring from multi-destination backup?

I’ve just setup my first backup with more than one destination (eg: to cloud and local file system).

Now to restore files from this backup, Is it possible to specify from which destination to get the files from (cloud/local in my case)?

For example, I want to restore a file from this multi-destination backup, but I want to restore from my local backup destination instead of using the cloud, which can incur additional costs (money & time). Is this possible?

Thanks!

Hi @headfirst, welcome to the forum :waving_hand:

If you use the restore page and choose to restore from the configured backup, it will always use the first (primary) data source to restore from.

If you want to restore from the other destination, choose the “Restore from files” option, then enter the details for the secondary storage + the password, and you can restore from that destination as well.
