Which step should you complete if your iPad fails to back up to iCloud?

A functioning network connection is required for an iPad to upload its backup to iCloud. Apple documents that automatic iCloud backups normally occur when the device is connected to power, locked, and connected to Wi-Fi. Consequently, if an iCloud backup fails, confirming that the iPad has a working Wi-Fi connection is an appropriate troubleshooting step. Bluetooth is not required for iCloud Backup. The device also does not need to remain unlocked; automatic backups are specifically designed to occur while it is locked. Signing in with a Managed Apple Account is not the general solution to a failed backup because the relevant Apple Account and organizational configuration depend on how the device is deployed. The network connection must be functional so the backup data can communicate with Apple’s iCloud services.
