I have just set up Backintime here, have set up some profiles, and am running snapshot jobs from the GUI; they seem to work fine. Running on a laptop (Fedora 39) with snapshots directed to an NFS-mounted Network Stoarage Applicance (NAS). I do not wish to add an external disk to the laptop, for laptop portability reasons. The laptop is (1) not always turned on and (2) not always at home where the NAS is available, so I need to run the jobs manually and can't use cron jobs. Ideally, I'd like to be able to run the jobs at the bash command line prompt; even better would be to run them via a script. Where/how can I find the full command line that runs a snapshot defined in a profile? Thanks.
