1. A computer-implemented method for generating catalogs for snapshots, at least a portion of the method being performed by a computing device comprising at least one processor, the method comprising:

  • identifying an initial snapshot and a subsequent snapshot for a protected volume;

    providing identifiers of the initial snapshot and the subsequent snapshot to a storage vendor application programming interface (API);

    receiving, from the storage vendor API, an indication of at least one difference between the initial snapshot and the subsequent snapshot;

    synthetically generating a catalog for the subsequent snapshot based on a preexisting catalog for the initial snapshot such that the synthetically generated catalog reflects the difference between the initial snapshot and the subsequent snapshot indicated by the storage vendor API.
