You can browse instances, databases, and availability groups to view their details such as how they are protected and recovery points that are availabile.
Note:
Classic policy information is displayed for databases but not for instances or availability groups. The web UI indicates if a protection plan protects the instance or replica, but not if a classic policy does. However, when a backup using a classic policy is performed on an individual database, the Protected by column displays the classic policy name.
On the Instances tab you can view and manage instances, including how they are protected and the instance credentials.
