Requires the BackWPup plugin on WordPress 6.9+ (each ability is guarded by a function_exists( 'wp_register_ability' ) check, so nothing registers on older cores). Individual abilities also require specific capabilities: 'backwpup' for listing jobs, reading backup history, reading the documentation resource; 'backwpup_jobs_start' for running or cancelling a backup job; and 'backwpup_logs' for reading backup logs.
