Backup automation of qlik scripts and automations

Hi, I've built a simple automation to backup our application to S3 
And I would want to do the same with scripts and automations. Is that possible in any way using Qlik automation functionality?

I'm attaching the automation JSON if anyone wants to see

Scripts are automatically treated as applications, and there is no way (or it is too much effort) to do this for automations.
It has to be done through the API.

Hi @fhana , yes you can create an automation to List de Apps, then get the script of them, in to a cycle

and you can use API too :

Qlik Cloud REST API endpoint : /api/v1/apps/{appId}/scripts/current

Help -->/api/v1/apps/{appId}/scripts

hey thanks for quick reply.
The script I prepared is backing up all apps together with the script what I would also back up are automations and scripts not apps
for instance 
https://company.us.qlikcloud.com/script/alphanumeric-string-id


and 

https://company.us.qlikcloud.com/analytics/automations/editor/alphanumeric-string-id

i know how to do this with API but wanted to have all in one place and do it in automations feature
