Create A New Cloud Backup with a Rule Machine Action?

I have a rule in combination with HomeKit automations and a matter switch to auto power cycle hub when cloud backup fails. Is there an action available in rule machine to create a new cloud backup so I can automate that final step as well? Searched, but couldn't find anything in forums or actions available in Hub Information Driver v3 or a custom action for the hub. If I auto-power cycle and it fixes the issue, I'll get a new cloud backup on my next nightly backup, but would like to be able to do it right away as part of the automation. Thanks!

i went the other route.. because very rarely cloud backups fail for no apparent reason on 1 or another of my 4 active hubs and can leave the zwave down.

for that reason i just manually do a cloud back after changes or a firmware update...

also it appears only so many are saved.. again for that reason i clear out old ones before doing a new so i can keep at least one for the last few versions if needed.
