"other supported storage services" looks unclear. Currently, besides S3, what storage services are supported for this feature?

When is it planned? If it will not happen in the upcoming one or two months, can we remove this tab and tell users that currently they can only use this feature with the CLI?

Are there any permissions required for S3? Do we need to indicate the permissions here and also provide the S3 doc link about how to configure the permissions?

The export service is free during the beta period. You only need to pay for the [Request Units (RUs)](/tidb-cloud/tidb-cloud-glossary.md#request-unit) generated during the export process.
