Throw this script in your crontab and get easy-to-understand reports from CloudBerry/MSP360 about all of your backups. No need to log into mspbackups.com and manually check your backups like an animal anymore. You'll know what backup plans failed, what succeeded, and what needs attention (warning). Reports are sent to a Telegram group of your choosing (you need to make a Telegram bot first)

This script was built to meet the needs of my business, BoPag Computer Services, LLC. You must understand that multiple assumptions are made in this script (only one daily file backup per computer, failed restores are ignored, etc), so you will likely need to modify this script to fit your needs. Pull requests are welcome, of course.
