# Get-VBRRestorePoint

## Short Description
Returns restore points.

**Product Edition**: Standard, Enterprise, Enterprise Plus, Veeam Universal License

## Syntax

This cmdlet provides the following parameter sets:

<ul class="syntax-sets">
  <li>
    <p><code>Backup (Default)</code></p>

```
Get-VBRRestorePoint [[-Backup] <CBackup[]>] [-Name <String[]>] [-ObjectId <Guid[]>] [<CommonParameters>]
```
  </li>
  <li>
    <p><code>Id</code></p>

```
Get-VBRRestorePoint -Id <Guid[]> [<CommonParameters>]
```
  </li>
</ul>

## Detailed Description
This cmdlet returns restore points created by Veeam Backup & Replication.

Restore points created by replication jobs are represented as snapshots.

Restore points created by backup jobs are represented as full and increment backup files.

::: important

To get a list of restore points for a Veeam Agent job, you must provide the asterisks sign for the `Name` parameter value: `Name "AgentJob*"`. Otherwise, the `Get-VBRRestorePoint` cmdlet will not return any restore points for the Veeam Agent job.

## Output Object
The cmdlet returns the `COib` object that contains information on restore points created by Veeam Backup & Replication.

## Examples

::: example
### Example 1. Getting all Restore Points

This command looks for all restore points of all VMs registered in the database.

```
Get-VBRRestorePoint
```

:::

::: example
### Example 2. Getting Restore Points by ID

This command looks for the `2ee79fec-9aa8-4058-a147-ff6b76ef2924` restore point.

```
Get-VBRRestorePoint -Id 2ee79fec-9aa8-4058-a147-ff6b76ef2924
```

:::

::: example
### Example 3. Getting Restore Points Created by Backup Job

This example shows how to get all restore points of the `MSExchange02` VM that is backed up by the `MSExchange` backup job.

```
$backup = Get-VBRBackup -Name "MSExchange"
Get-VBRRestorePoint -Name *MSExchange02* -Backup $backup
```

Perform the following steps:

1. Run the [`Get-VBRBackup`](get-vbrbackup.md) cmdlet. Specify the `Name` parameter value. Save the result to the `$backup` variable.
2. Run the `Get-VBRRestorePoint` cmdlet. Specify the `Name` parameter value. Set the `$backup` variable as the `Backup` parameter value.

:::

::: example
### Example 4. Getting Restore Points Created by Replication Job

This example shows how to get all restore points of VMs that are replicated by the `DC Replica` replication job.

```
$replica = Get-VBRReplica -Name "DC Replica"
Get-VBRRestorePoint -Backup $replica
```

Perform the following steps:

1. Run the [`Get-VBRReplica`](get-vbrreplica.md) cmdlet. Specify the `Name` parameter value. Save the result to the `$replica` variable.
2. Run the `Get-VBRRestorePoint` cmdlet. Set the `$replica` variable as the `Backup` parameter value.

::: example
### Example 5. Getting Restore Points Created by Veeam Agent

This example shows how to get all restore points of Windows-based machines backed up by the `WinBackup` Veeam Agent job.

```
$winbackup = Get-VBRBackup -Name "WinBackup"
Get-VBRRestorePoint -Backup $winbackup
```

Perform the following steps:

1. Run the [`Get-VBRBackup`](get-vbrbackup.md) cmdlet. Specify the `Name` parameter value. Save the result to the `$winbackup` variable.
2. Run the `Get-VBRRestorePoint` cmdlet. Set the `$winbackup` variable as the `Backup` parameter value.

::: example
### Example 6. Getting Latest Restore Point Created by Backup Job [Using Pipeline]

This example shows how to look for the latest restore point of VMs that are backed up by the `MSExchange Backup` backup job.

```
Get-VBRBackup -Name MSExchange Backup | Get-VBRRestorePoint -Name MSExchange02 | Sort-Object -Property CreationTime -Descending | Select-Object -First 1
```

Perform the following steps:

1. Run the [`Get-VBRBackup`](get-vbrbackup.md) cmdlet. Specify the `Name` parameter value.

::: example
### Example 7. Getting Latest Restore Point Created by Replication Job [Using Pipeline]

This example shows how to return the latest restore point of the `MSExchange02` VM that is replicated by the `Replica_Exchange` replication job.

```
Get-VBRReplica -Name Replica_Exchange | Get-VBRRestorePoint -Name MSExchange02 | Sort-Object -Property CreationTime -Descending | Select -First 1
```

Perform the following steps:

1. Run the [`Get-VBRReplica`](get-vbrreplica.md) cmdlet. Specify the `Name` parameter value.
2. Pipe the cmdlet output to the `Get-VBRRestorePoint` cmdlet. Specify the `Name` parameter value.
