How to add my ICloud Files to Time Machine backup?

How to add my ICloud Files to Time Machine backup? I thought they were backed up on my Time Machine SSD drive but can’t locate them. Thank you.

Time Machine backs up everything on your computer except items that you exclude. If iCloud files have been offloaded for space, they will not backup. You'll need to download them first.
