Backing up iCloud contents

When I browse my backups file, I can't find the contents of iCloud. Yet I can't find a setting to make it back up the iCloud Drive? What am I missing?

iMac 27″, macOS 14.7

iCloud is the backup (except even Apple says you should keep copies elsewhere too). What it has should also be on any device you have that is signed into your ID and has iCloud activated on it. iCloud is syncing storage, not a standard hard drive in the sky kind of thing. To back it up --> Archive or make copies of the information you store in iCloud - Apple Support
