List backups of a branch

backups & data

// what it does

Shows every backup of a branch with IDs, sizes, and expiry — your menu of restore points. The ID is what backup restore and branch create --restore take.

// shell

$ pscale backup list mydb main
$ pscale backup show mydb main <backup-id>

// gotcha

Backups expire per your plan's retention; if you need a long-term archive (compliance, pre-decommission), take a logical dump with database dump instead — backups are for recovery, not archival.
