    enabled: true,
    config: {
      archiveName: 'my-custom-prefix',
      encryptionKey: 'mySuperSecretKey'
    }
  }
}

Notes

The encryption key is NOT part of the forms because it's just too dangerous imho. You'll send a potential "secret" over the wire, which you'll have to store and remember by yourself. It's easy to leak but more importantly easy to forget.

Be careful that this suppress warnings so once you press the button, it'll be running no matter what.

There are no translations because we went for the shortest path to completion but PRs are welcomed.
