Reports
This functionality is available only with the Acronis Cyber Backup Advanced license.
A report can include any set of the dashboard widgets. You can use predefined reports or create a custom report.
The reports can be sent via email or downloaded on a schedule. To send the reports via email, ensure that the Email server settings are configured.
If you want to process a report by using third-party software, schedule saving the report in the .xlsx format to a specific folder.
Basic operations with reports
Click Overview > Reports, select a report, and then do one of the following:
- To view a report, click Open.
- To send the report via email, click Send now, specify the email addresses, select the report format, and then click Send.
- To download the report, click Download.
Scheduling a report
- Select a report, and then click Schedule.
- Enable the Send a scheduled report switch.

Exporting and importing the report structure
You can export and import the report structure (the set of widgets and the schedule settings) to a .json file. This may be useful in case of the management server re-installation or for copying the report structure to a different management server.
To export the report structure, select a report, and then click Export.
To import the report structure, click Create report, and then click Import.
Dumping the report data
You can save a dump of the report data to a .csv file. The dump includes all of the report data (without filtering) for a custom time range.
The software generates the data dump on the fly. If you specify a long period of time, this action may take a long time.
To dump the report data
- Select a report, and then click Open.
- Click the vertical ellipsis icon in the top-right corner, and then click Dump data.
- In Location, specify the folder path for the .csv file.
- In Time range, specify the time range.
- Click Save.
