Why Oracle SQL Flash Recover Area is blank?

I get 0 rows in the results I use SELECT * from V$RECOVERY_FILE_DEST

V$RECOVERY_FILE_DEST is a default table name for the oracle Flash recovery area. Does this mean that a Backup never happens on this platform or Flash recovery area name is different from the default? If yes, then how can I locate the Flash Recovery area on Oracle Database if yes?

V$RECOVERY_FILE_DEST shows target OS or ASM directories, as specified in the db_recovery_area_dir initialization parameter, which are designated to contain flash recovery area files. If there is nothing visible in the table, confirm the setting of the initialization parameter. If both are null/empty, then there is no Flash Recovery Area defined for the database.

select * from v$recovery_file_dest;
