Plex Notify - 401 Unauthorized

[Reneg]

Im not sure if it is a bug or something wrong on my config, but when filebot try to force the library upgrade it returns the following error:

401 Unauthorized

Maybe it is something linked to the plex token.

( I am using the last portable version )

Thanks

If you get 401 Unauthorized then FileBot has sent a request to Plex and Plex sent back a NOPE! so you need to go to the Plex wiki/forums and see how to fix that, and then tell us how you fixed it.

Hello,

At last i found that we have to send a personal token to request the refresh:

Code: Select all

http://PLEX-SERVER-IP:32400/library/sections/all/refresh?X-Plex-Token=INSERT_THE_TOKEN_HERE

The personal token can be found by accessing the XML from the plex UI



I was using an old cli command where no token were needed and reading "again" the documentation i can see that filebot already have the way to pass the token for the query

Filebot string:

Code: Select all

 --def plex=host[:token]

Just had this problem and just to be clear, you dont need to put that whole string in the plex tag (ie, plex=192.168.1.2:32400/library/sections/all/refresh?X-Plex-Token=INSERT_THE_TOKEN_HERE) you just need to put in plex=192.168.1.2:Token.

I know its clear above, but I am an idiot who put the whole thing, so figured someone else might waste time doing it as well.

Thanks for finding the fix
