    Hi,
    since a few weeks Backblaze added support for Application Keys limited to a single bucket.

    Using those keys the plugin does not work because you have to use the KeyID and the ApplicationKey to login, but then you need to use the AccountId to make requests such as listBuckets.

    I think the best solution is to use the provided AccountID and Application Key for the b2_authorize_account request, then save the AccountID returned by that call along with the AuthorizationToken for the subsequent requests.

    Thank you

    Hi,

    Thanks for the report. I have added this to our internal task tracker.

    For future enhancement requests, please use https://updraftplus.com/feature-requests/ – that is set up for that purpose. (In the support forum here, they get more easily lost).

    I agree with the author of the message, the support for Application Keys is a need to be used with BackBlaze for basic security reasons.

    Thank you in advance

    This is very important – for data security (segmentation) purposes. I have created a feature request, so if you are interested – pls vote/support: https://updraftplus.com/feature-requests/request/support-for-backblaze-bucket-specific-app-keys/
