AniList Backups

Backups view

Use the backups page to browse, preview, and restore the AniList snapshots PlexAniBridge creates for you. The page has two stops: a profile picker at /backups and a detailed table at /backups/{profile}. Everything you see reflects the real files stored in PAB_DATA_PATH/backups, so you always know what is available.

Note: backups are automatically deleted after 7 days (rolling retention). If you need to keep a snapshot longer, save it in a safe location.

he profile view lists every backup with its filename, when it was created, how old it is, file size, and which AniList user it belongs to.

Actions on each row:

  • Preview opens the backup in a modal so you can skim the JSON of your AniList backup before doing anything permanent.
  • Restore triggers the restore job, and shows a toast summarising how many entries were brought back plus any warnings.
