Plex
Status: 🧪 Needs testers · Content: movies, TV episodes, and seasons
Help test this source. Plex hasn’t been confirmed on enough real setups yet. If you run it, please tell us how it went : your Plex version, what worked, and any errors from the Logs page.
Connect straight to Plex Media Server if you don’t run Tautulli.
What you need
| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Base URL | Your Plex server, usually http://<host>:32400. |
| Plex token | Your server’s X-Plex-Token. Plex explains how to find it in Finding an authentication token . |
| Public URL | Optional. Your Plex web address, e.g. https://plex.example.com. |
Treat the token like a password: it grants full access to your server. LatestArr encrypts it at rest and never puts it in an email.
Links
Items link to their page in Plex Web, using the Public URL if you set one, otherwise the Base URL.
Good to know
- TV episodes show the series poster.
- Music libraries are skipped.
- There’s no Most watched data from Plex directly. That section needs Tautulli.
- Like Tautulli, LatestArr fetches the 100 most recent items and filters by date itself.
Importing users
Supported, but Plex doesn’t share email addresses with a server token, so you’ll type an email for each person you import.
If you also run Tautulli, importing from Tautulli instead may fill in emails for you.
