Backup Activity Report
Overview
Backup Activity Report provides a comprehensive list of all backup operations performed for resources of the workloads configured in the organizations. It gives insights into the status of each backup job run for each resource, based on which you can perform analysis and take corrective actions. For example, if the backup operation fails because of the exceeding quota, you may go ahead and buy additional credits based on the consumption requirements.
Hybrid Workloads Administrators can view the Backup Activity Report depending on their access privileges. If you are a Cloud-derived administrator or a Data Protection Officer, you can view the report of backup activities of your configured workloads. If you are an Organization-derived administrator, you can view the report of backup activities of workload specific to the organizations you have access to. If you are a Group-derived administrator, you can view the report of backup activities of workloads related to the administrative groups that you manage.
Procedure
- Log in to the Druva Cloud Platform Console.
- Go to the Global Navigation Panel > Reports > Hybrid Workloads. The Hybrid Workloads Reports page appears.
Click Backup Activity Report. The report details page appears.
The Backup Activity Report page appears. By default, the report provides details of the backups that occurred in the last 30 days. You can apply filters to the Backup Activity Report to fetch backup data details as per your requirements. You can view the generated report, or send it through an email to the intended recipients. You can also download data in the widgets in the CSV, CSV-Summary, and PDF formats. You can sort data in the Backup Activity Details table using single or multiple columns, and rearrange columns in the table as required.
Note: The report data is refreshed every two hours. The last updated time recorded for the report is displayed next to the report title. This timestamp follows the administrator’s time zone. However, the timestamps of the data fetched in the report follow the UTC time zone.

Add Filter
You can apply filters to the Backup Activity Report to fetch backup details as per your requirements. You can view the generated report, download it, or send it through an email to the intended recipients.
Procedure
- On the Backup Activity Report page, click the filter icon.
The Filters widget appears. The Filters widget displays a backup activity filter selected by default that lists backup activities performed in the last 30 days. You can define multiple filters based on your requirements. Druva will fetch report data based on the fields’ selection. Click the delete icon to remove filters. - Click Add Filter.
- On the Filter dialog, select a field or type the field name in the Column box, and use the filter options to create a combination of filters, and click Apply.
The Backup Activity Report page now displays data specific to the filter created. Similarly, you can further create more filters and apply them to display backup activity details.
For example, to fetch data for two organizations, ORGA and ORGB, respectively, select the Organization from the filter options, select the Equals option from the Is drop-down list, and select the check boxes for ORGA and ORGB, respectively. Click Apply.
The report now displays backup data specific to the two organizations, ORGA and ORGB.
Sort data
Use the sort options to sort the report data in a single or multiple columns in an ascending or descending order.
Single-column Sort
- Click the
icon to sort the data values in ascending or descending order. - Click the
icon to disable the sorting option.
Multiple-column Sort
The Apply Multiple-column Sort option allows you to sort report data using more than one column. The report data displays based on the order of columns selected. For example, you may want to fetch backup data for File Server workload deployed per organization with the successful status. To sort File Server data by the Organization Name and Status columns, simply perform the following steps:
- In the Backup Activity Details table, go to the Backup Set column and the More icon > Apply Multi-column Sort .
- Click the sort icon in the Organization Name column.
The Backup Activity Details table displays report data sorted based on the selected order of columns.
