How can I download my InfluxDB backup from Balena Cloud?

Hi everyone :waving_hand:

I successfully created a backup of my InfluxDB 1.7 database running on a Balena device using the following commands inside the influxdb service terminal:

mkdir /backup
influxd backup -portable -database pycmat /backup


backup_influx_pycmat/
 ├── 20251007T200102Z.s445.tar.gz
 ├── 20251007T200102Z.s453.tar.gz
 ├── 20251007T200102Z.s461.tar.gz
 ├── 20251007T200102Z.s469.tar.gz
 ├── 20251007T200102Z.s477.tar.gz
 └── 20251007T200102Z.manifest

Everything is inside /backup in the InfluxDB container.

My question is:
:backhand_index_pointing_right: What’s the easiest or recommended way to download this backup from Balena Cloud to my local computer?

I tried using balena cp, but I got permission or key errors.
Is there a simple method to extract these files (maybe from the dashboard or with another command)?

Thanks in advance! :folded_hands:
