I thought that in the current TKLBAM (1.4) you could override that. By default it wants to use AWS S3 storage, so you can set up a Hub account linked to AWS and use the Hub API to keep track of all your backups (on S3) via the Hub.

Go here and click the 'Sign up' button. I suggest you have a bit of a read first so you know what you're signing up to but it's up to you... If you have any questions then please post in the forums

I can't figure it out: after changing HUB API key my backups doesn't show in GUI. I receive "backup in progress" window, but after it finishes I can't even see which devices made a copy. They're in the S3, I can restore them from console, but I can't launch new server from backup. Am I doing something wrong or it's a bug?

Assuming that you are looking at the the same Hub account as the API key is for then what is showing on the commandline should match what is in the Hub UI.

Although sometimes the Hub UI can be a little slow to update. If it still hasn't updated then please log into the Hub and send me an email via the Feddback link (top of the page, 2nd from the left).
