Easily Backup Knack Tables to Google Drive

I recently converted a Python script to a Google Apps Script, and I’d like to share it with everyone. It backs up your Knack tables to a Google Drive. It’s easy to set up and pretty much free if you have the available Knack API usage in your plan and some Google Drive space. Hope you get some good use out of it. Instructions are found in the readme. I’ll try to add more useful scripts over time.

Hi Cary

Thank you for sharing this. We too had created something similar in Google Apps Scripts but would exceed our API usage on some days when other routines ran. In your scripts is it possible to set the frequency for some of the objects to be backed up to only run on say work days?

Thank you for this, I have been meaning to get something like this sorted for a while so you just saved me a lot of work!

I would probably create two separate script projects, one for each schedule, and set a trigger for the frequency you want to run. Be sure to set those objects up in the environment variables page.
