Run a backup now

Queue an immediate run of this backup policy. Poll the returned operation before treating the backup as complete. HTTP 409 means no backup was started: one is already running (conflict), or its database or project was deleted or is being deleted (database_deleted, database_deleting, project_deleting).

Tool: triggerBackup
Permission: backups:write
Kind: Makes changes

Queued work: send an idempotencyKey and reuse the same value when retrying this exact call.

`projectId`	`string`	Yes	At least 1 character(s)

Example call

The params of a tools/call request. Replace the placeholder values with your own IDs.

{
  "name": "triggerBackup",
  "arguments": {
    "projectId": "REPLACE_WITH_PROJECT_ID",
    "policyId": "REPLACE_WITH_POLICY_ID",
    "idempotencyKey": "REPLACE_WITH_IDEMPOTENCY_KEY"
  }
}

Result

The same data as the API operation, wrapped as {"untrusted_data": true, "source": "triggerBackup", "note": "...", "data": ...} so the model treats project content as data, not instructions.
