I’m using the free heroku add-on PG Backups and followed these instructions. I found the command to install the app: heroku addons:add pgbackups:auto-week. However I m wondering how I can enable / disable the weekly backups.
heroku addons:add pgbackups:auto-week
Adding pgbackups:auto-week on myProject... failed
! pgbackups:plus add-on already added.
! To upgrade, use addons:upgrade instead.
The Postgres Dev Center article mentions that automatic backups are only enabled for production databases (i.e. Crane tier database payment plans and higher). Perhaps the PG Backups add-on doesn’t perform automatic backups on ‘Starter’ tier (i.e. ‘dev’ or ‘basic’) database plans?
It might be worth checking with Heroku Support to see if this is the case and if the PG Backups article needs to be updated.
