Yearly backup option is required

We are planning to take backup yearly , but as of now available max monthly backup. If i want to take yearly backup need to take 12 months for single year which expensive , as per our audit team need 20 years back up retention then it is required 12X20 = 240 backups which is very expensive. If yearly backup is available only 20X1 = 20 only. As of now only available below options: Hourly Daily Weekly Monthly Raised case also in our support portal: 01198437

    Hi! We added the yearly snapshot policy option earlier this year. If you do not see it in your backup policy table under the Backup tab of your cluster's Backup page, click the "+ Add Frequency Unit" button and select "Yearly Snapshot" from the dropdown. Thank you for submitting your feedback to the team!

Hi, It would be great to have support for yearly backup, including via terraform: https://registry.terraform.io/providers/mongodb/mongodbatlas/latest/docs/resources/cloud_provider_snapshot_backup_policy. Thanks
