It would be nice to have the feature to edit the backup configuration if needed.

I am giving an example of the requirement of the change of Backup Configuration.

Suppose I have a custom S3 configuration added for database backups to Wasabi or other S3 compatible. Now maybe I need to change the endpoint or the bucket name. Currently, there is no option to change the bucket or endpoint information.

I will have to create another backup configuration and update every backup setup where it has been assigned as a backup configuration, which is a time-consuming and repetitive task.

I think your title needs a little bit adjusting, there's already the ability to edit backups, you just need more fields in there, right?

Sorry for my bad. Yes, the title needs to be updated. It should be,

**Ability to edit the backup configurations after saving it**

I have shared a screenshot to understand the requirement better.

When we access the Backup Configurations, we can add a new configuration. After adding this, there is no option to edit the configuration if needed.

It's fixed once we store the configuration.

Suppose I already used the Custom S3 configurations to 20 sites or backups. If I need to change an endpoint or bucket name, I will have to create another Backup Configuration and re-add the new configurations to all the 20 sites.

I believe it best to have the option to edit the existing one.
