Plex App & Media Server Tiles (w/Homarr Integration) - #plex-integration-with-homarr
Problem Encountered: - #plex-integration-with-homarr
I managed to get Homarr to show a green check for the Plex App tile, but the "Media Server" Integration where it shows if people are watching something on Plex did not integrate/connect/work for me. I have been searching for hours on here and could not find the answer so I started typing the details up.

I got it working... You have to use http and turn off "Required" secure connections I believe... As soon as I switched it to http://192.168.0.99:32400 and set "Secure connections" to "Preferred", it started showing what was being played:

❓ Frequently Asked Questions | Homarr documentation
Can I install Homarr on a Raspberry Pi?
Looks like no / at the end of your URLs?
No, Trailing slashes get removed automatically, that's on purpose.
I'm guessing it's the use of https on an ip address that's the problem
I'm having the exact same problem as the OP. Here are some log entries and wget in Homarr:

So, since this is the case...will a future version connect on https so we can turn Secure connections back to "Required"? Also, will future versions allow the "https://192.168.0.99:32400/web" so the ping returns 200? 🙂
(Instead of adding 401 to have it show green)
IMPORTANT: Perfect, thanks. It's very important to get your token via logging in via the IP of the server that hosts the Plex and not from app.plext.v. Once you do that...all is good!
