i am unable to schedule a backup job to run automatically in Veeam B&R using REST API. I am using the below JSON code to create a backup job with 'runAutomatically' set to true under schedule. Though the backup job is getting created, scheduling is not getting enabled and in response am seeing 'runAutomatically' as false even i am setting it as true in request body. Can you please correct me if i am doing something wrong JSON ? Can you please guide me to Schedule a Veeam B&R backup job to run Automatically using REST API.
NOTE: As per Request samples in the API create job section, i have also tried removing "runAutomatically" and having 'isEnabled' set to true under schedule, but that didn't help.
REST API reference i followed: https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/backu ... /CreateJob
Veeam B&R version: 12.1.0.2131
