Open "Backup and reset" in Settings Programmatically

I want to open Backup and reset in Android Setting. For example If you want to open Wi-Fi in Android settings you can use this code :

getApplicationContext().startActivity(new Intent(Settings.ACTION_WIFI_SETTINGS));

But I found nothing that could help me to open Backup and reset. Has anyone seen any implementations of how to do that?

This worked for me to open backup and restore programmatically. Tested on S8 and Essential PH-1

Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.setComponent(new ComponentName("com.android.settings", "com.android.settings.Settings$PrivacySettingsActivity"));
if (intent.resolveActivity(context.getPackageManager()) != null) {
   context.startActivity(intent);
}

As for the latest Android Q Beta release, the accepted answer should not be valid anymore.

The Backup feature has now been moved to the System settings group (same as date/hour settings and so on).

I know this is old, But you can open Backup and Reset with this intent

Intent backupIntent = new Intent(Settings.ACTION_PRIVACY_SETTINGS);
startActivity(backupIntent);

Just Looking at Settings Reference docs, there is NO Direct intent to OPEN the Backup and Reset Settings directly using Intent mechanism!
