Note that you will need to provide Station70 with your Utila vault ID.
Step 1: Initiate backup from Utila
Go to Vault Settings > Backup > Create New Backup > Managed by Station70.
Carefully review the detailed steps and when you are ready click Backup with Station70.
Step 2: Vault action approval
Creating a vault backup is subject to admin quorum approval. To proceed, ensure you have the appropriate approvals according to your admin quorum settings.
