Does the backup option under "Scheduled Tasks" cover music playlists?

Can’t seem to find a straight answer anywhere as some say it’s just the core files and others say they were able to restore playlists. I have multiple music playlists that I have built up each with hundreds of songs, should my server go down I do not want to have to spends days building the playlists up again.

Does the back-up utility under “Scheduled Tasks” cover playlists at all, or do I have to make a manual backup of the entire Plex data folder? I do not care about metadata, play state or anything else. I just want to be able to restore the Playlists easily. The media itself is backed up and will have the same pathways if it needs to be restored.

Playlists are in the main database file. Which means they are being exported in this backup.

If you want to add another level of security, install WebTools and download the playlists in there from time to time.
