Obtain a Plex token
How to Get Your Plex Token
Some Wizarr features require your Plex authentication token. Here’s the simplest way to find it.
1. Open Plex in Your Browser
Go to https://app.plex.tv and log in.
Open your Plex Web App.
2. Right-Click Any Item
Right-click on a movie, show, or library item.
Click View Info
Select View XML
3. Copy the Token
The XML page will open in a new tab.
Look at the URL in the address bar.
At the very end you’ll see
X-Plex-Token=...
Example:
https://<server>:32400/library/metadata/12345?X-Plex-Token=abcd1234efgh5678
The part after X-Plex-Token=
is your Plex token.
4. Keep It Safe
Do not share this token publicly — it grants access to your Plex server.
If it’s ever compromised, you can revoke it by signing out of all devices in your Plex account settings.
