reported back
Returned with information
Reported back means to return information to the person or group that sent you: The scouts reported back with news of enemy movements.
It emphasizes the return element—you were dispatched, you gathered information, and now you're delivering it to your source.
In organizational contexts, it often describes updating supervisors or committees: She reported back to the board after the site visit.
