Homepage Dashboard - Need help with Proxmox Backup Server Widget

I successfully setup the Proxmox widget in my Homepage dash, but can't
get the Proxmox Backup Server widget to work. The problem appears to
be with the user config in PBS, as it works if I give the widget the
root user info. What do I need in PBS (API Token, Permissions, etc.),
to allow the widget to collect info?

I believe a new user with limited scope and root level read access. I
followed the instruction and it works like a charm.

Is there a different instruction for the backup server or is it the
same process as the Proxmox server?

I think you just need to follow the instructions here: [https://gethom
epage.dev/v0.8.3/widgets/services/proxmox/](https://gethomepage.dev/v0
.8.3/widgets/services/proxmox/)

But do it on your Proxmox Backup Server.

Then configure the widget in homepage with this:
