# dbdock list

> List all available backups with filtering.

```bash theme={null}
npx dbdock list [options]
```

Shows backups from your configured storage provider. When you have more than 50 backups, DBDock auto-filters to keep the output readable.

## Options

| Option               | Description                       |
| -------------------- | --------------------------------- |
| `--recent <N>`       | Show the N most recent backups    |
| `--search <keyword>` | Filter by keyword in backup ID    |
| `--days <N>`         | Show backups from the last N days |
| `--limit <N>`        | Limit total results               |

## Examples

### Most recent

```bash theme={null}
npx dbdock list --recent 10
```

### Last week

```bash theme={null}
npx dbdock list --days 7
```

### Search by keyword

```bash theme={null}
npx dbdock list --search "pre-deploy"
```

Matches any backup whose ID contains "pre-deploy".

### Combine filters

```bash theme={null}
npx dbdock list --days 30 --limit 20
```

Last 30 days, capped at 20 results.

## Scripting

The command writes human-readable output by default. For scripting, use the [SDK](/sdk/listing-backups) which returns structured data.
