Does 1Password 1pif backup save OTP authenticator codes?

Just wanted to validate that I won't lose my OTP authenticator codes if I ever run into an issue and need to restore from an offline backup. Thanks!

    I believe they are, and you can check for yourself. The 1PIF is just a plain text document.

    Here are two different sample items I just exported, a Login and a Secure Note.

    You can just search the 1PIF for the TOTP_ entries inside of each item's "fields" list. The kind (k value) is"concealed" and the value (v value) is the original TOTP seed code you entered.
