Using the CLI

Use the command-line interface to view the details of a backup.

This task requires the following:
  • A backup OCID.
  • A properly configured CLI installation and the requisite SSH keys. See Command Line Interface.
  1. Open a command prompt and run the following command:
    oci mysql backup get --backup-id <BackupOCID>
HeatWave Service retrieves the backup details and displays the result in JSON format.
