Yes if it's actually running the backup.create_automatic action from home assistant then it will create the backups but it will not use the right names e.g. Daily, Monthly, etc. as that action doesn't support custom names, it also won't use the correct retention so the backups won't be generational, basically all backups will use the same retention set in home assistants automatic backup settings.
