Installation
Default install:
1
bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/community-scripts/DevScripts/main/ct/unifi-protect-backup.sh)"
Notes
Create a dedicated local UniFi Protect user with access to the cameras before installation.
The initial configuration stores clips locally. Configure an rclone remote and update RCLONE_DESTINATION in /opt/unifi-protect-backup/.env for off-site storage.
The default container disk is 4 GB. Select Advanced Install to choose a larger disk when retaining clips locally.
