Another small mistake: The file or the folder to be restored should be without the leading /
I did write it wrong in my own comment, sorry for that. The right syntax is:
duply offsite fetch etc/myfile /tmp/restore

Thank you for the nice post.

One correction however when it comes to restore:

duply offsite restore /etc/myfile /tmp/restore will not work and you have to enter duply offsite fetch /etc/myfile /tmp/restore instead. If wished with an age like fetch []

Great work!
