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.
