Good Morning
My iPad is not syncing contacts with my iPhone. I completely erased and reinstalled from latest iCloud backup but contacts are missing?
iPad Pro, iPadOS 14

If you were syncing Contacts with iCloud, the contacts aren't included in a backup. Have you gone to iCloud.com/Contacts to see if the contacts are there?
For the syncing problem, try going to iCloud.com using a browser to see if the items are there and which device they are from. That should show which device isn't syncing. On the device that isn't syncing, go to Settings/Your Name/iCloud and disable syncing. After a couple of minutes, turn syncing on. Allow time for the sync to complete. As a last resort, you can also try signing out of iCloud and then sign in again.
