Account backup - This backup is not ready yet

I’m preparing to migrate an account on one instance to new instance. As part of this, typically a user would do an account back - to simply have the data. I requested a backup from the user panel >24 hrs ago and it’s still showing “This backup is not ready yet.”

I feel like I’m missing something dumb.. Is there scheduler broken? Or is it me?

Have you already (force)refresehed the page yet? (Ctrl+F5 in Firefox)?

If it’s still stuck pending after that, ask your instance owner to check whether there are pending backup jobs in either the Prometheus metrics/Grafana dashboard or the Oban Web dashboard if enabled. If so, also whether the pending queue is slowly decreasing.

Typically a backup becomes available within a couple minutes for me, so this is not a (known) general issue
