# Return cPanel account backups

This function returns one entry for each cPanel account backup archive
in the current cPanel account's home directory.

Note:
The function derives each archive's status from the on-disk marker file
that cPanel writes while a backup runs. It is the single source of truth
for the list of available backups.
