+4I am trying to determine the correct REST API “get” to list all VM clients (guests) being protected. Maybe I am missing it or it’s more difficult than I think. I can list all VM hosts, VSAs, datastores, etc, but I just need a list of VMs being backed up.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

I figured it out with the help of Commvault Support. You need to put the pagesize in the header of the API request.
Hi
I looked into this and can agree that it’s at least not easy to find this particular information with REST api (protected vm’s as opposed to just a list of all vm’s). We do have a VM backup report available on the store.
I understand that you are looking to pull this from and api call though. A suggestion is that you use the api to pull report data from this report. A starting point for pulling report information via api calls is in the link below

I hadn’t looked at getting the data using the report api. I took a quick look and...well….the data is there. Now to figure out how to get it in the format I want.

That should give you the backup status and a lot more.
