Hello,

I wanted to know what permissions I actually have to give to the PVE-User to successfully backup to a datastore. What permission"path" does the user need and which role for that path? Dont want to grant a / superadmin if not neccessary. Did not find notes related to that in the documentation.
 
Hi,

You can use the Permission editor in the webinterface, which provides you with a list off possible ACL paths.

For when the Proxmox VE really only does backups and optional restore of their own backups, you could use the DatastoreBackup role on the /datastore/<id> path.
