The Admin Center export API requires an Azure Storage SAS URI which
requires an Azure Subscription - defeating the purpose of an independent
backup. Instead, use BC API v2.0 to extract critical business data
(customers, vendors, items, GL entries, invoices, etc.) as JSON files.
- bc-export.ps1: rewritten to use BC API v2.0 endpoints, extracts 23
entity types per company with OData pagination support
- bc-backup.sh: handles JSON export directory, creates tar.gz archive
before encrypting and uploading to S3
- bc-backup.conf.template: removed Azure Storage SAS config, added
optional BC_COMPANY_NAME filter
- decrypt-backup.sh: updated for tar.gz.gpg format, shows extracted
entity files and metadata after decryption
