[SOLVED] How do you restore backups?

I can't for the life of me figure out how to do a restore. I installed Proxmox Backup Server, set it up on my cluster, ran a job, it did all the backups, and I see them in the backup server, but I don't see anywhere on either the Proxmox cluster or backup server on how to actually restore. The docs show command line ways of doing it but is there a way to do this through the GUI?
 
What are we talking about here, restoring a VM to a specific point in time?

If we are talking about a VM its within the VM Configuration

I don't see the backups from PBS in that list, only the ones I did locally within PVE before I installed PBS. I did add PBS as a storage type and did schedule the job. I ran it manually though, would that be an issue? I see the backups within PBS itself but not in the cluster.
 
Select the appropriate storage endpoint in your GUI :)

Oh wow I never even noticed that option there, doh!

Thanks for pointing it out. I see the backups now.
