Minecraft Switch: Cloud saves no longer work

I am trying to download my save backup from the cloud onto the Nintendo Switch.  However, when I go to the Save Data Cloud tab, it says "This software does not support backup via the Save Data Cloud Service".

 

I tried uninstalling/re-installing the game, and nothing changed.  I also did a factory reset of the console and after re-installing the game, it showed me that there was indeed a cloud backup available.  However, when I tried to download the save, the download wouldn't initialize and I'm back to seeing the above message.

 

Not sure if this feature was removed, if it's a problem on your side, or if it's Nintendo's problem.  However, after searching Reddit and other forums, there appear to be multiple people affected by this.

If you were having issues with cloud saves for Minecraft on Switch, this was due to a backend error - not intentionally disabled! Should be good to go now.

If you're still having issues, try this:
1. Go to [System Settings]-> [Data Management] ->[Save Data Cloud]
2. Select a profile that has Nintendo Switch Online
3. Press [Y: Update List] while [All Save Data] is selected.

This issue is back for 1.20.62
