Usage

  1. Save this script to your Synology at e.g. /volume1/scripts/syno_hb_hcio.sh
  2. Edit the ENDPOINT= line and paste in your UUID URL.
  3. Use Task Scheduler to execute the script at e.g. 11:55pm (or whatever time that you feel your backup will be completed by)

The script will only work if your backup task has completed before this script executes but still on the same calendar date. If that isn't possible, then you will either need to adjust the awk script to look for the previous day. How to do that is left as an exercise to the reader.
