Ekaterina, is there a way to find errors or failed tasks in the log files? Or any example how to get that information from SQlite db?

this information should be written in: C:\ProgramData\Acronis\ServiceProcess\date&time.log
Please let me know, if you have further questions or concerns.
There is nothing that you saying...

Hello Martin!
Assuming you want to query if backup for a single computer succeeded, you can do something like the below with the sqlite task_manager_db. Otherwise open it with dbbrowser for sqlite and browse the data in activities to find what you want to query.
select
resource_name,
state,
status,
datetime(completed_at, 'unixepoch') as completed_at
from activities where resource_name = 'YourComputerFQDN'
and title = 'Backup plan ''YourBackupPlanName'''
order by completed_at desc

Hi Peter,
not exactly. I need report every morning with machines that failed backup previous night.
But failed backups (even after all options set in Acronis like re-try 3 times etc). So final status as failed backup.
Then have this list and via our API create INCident in our system.

Hello Martin!
Would a Device report not suffice then? If last successful backup date is more than 1 days and computer was supposed to be online it failed.

No. I mean the report which can be parsed and INCident created automatically. Maybe - one thing that just come to miy mind.. create report on a daily basis from previous night and send it as XML to an email robot to parse details from that XML and create an incident.. but this is extra automation.. uhh. going to check this option.

Hello Martin!
Sorry I didn't emphasize this, but you can export the reports on a schedule (e.g. daily) to either email or a network share as pdf or excel (you can set this in the settings on the upper right corner of a report). In excel format it's a simple table on a sheet, one for each widget in the report. You can resave them as csv or process directly from excel in your integration solution. This is what I did too.
Though it's extra automation, I don't expect the reports to change, and being a high level function I also don't expect them to be broken anytime soon.
