Hi,
My MacBook Pro has water damage and won’t turn on. I was wondering if anyone knows how I can figure out if my data has backed up to iCloud? When I go on the iCloud website there’s nothing under the computers tab. Not sure if I’m doing something wrong. PLEASE help!!

Apple has iCloud Backup for iPhones and other iOS devices but not for computers. It does have options to sync data to iCloud. For that to happen you would need to have turned on the desired sync options (e.g., iCloud Photos, iCloud Drive - with Dekstop and Documents option if desired, Notes, Contacts, etc.).
See: Set up and use iCloud Photos - Apple Support
and
What is iCloud Drive? - Apple Support
and
Add your Desktop and Documents files to iCloud Drive - Apple Support
If those options were on you should be able to see the synced data by using a computer internet browser and logging into www.icloud.com
At iCloud.com, look in the Photos app there for photos, iCloud Drive for files, etc.

Ok thank you. I guess it wasn’t turned on prob saved it to my hard drive . Which now the computer won’t even turn on so it’s prob all gone
You may want to take it in to an Apple Authorized service center to see if they can recover any of the data.
