#### SIMKL + Plex not syncing

Changes you make to webhook settings through your Plex account online usually sync to your Plex Media Server within a few minutes. The server periodically checks in with your Plex account, so it will pull down any new configurations during its next sync. If you want to speed things up, you can try one of the following:

1. Manually trigger a server refresh: Sign in to your Plex Media Server’s web interface and navigate through your account settings. Simply viewing or toggling related settings can sometimes prompt the server to sync sooner.
   2\. Restart the Plex server: Stopping and restarting your Plex Media Server often forces it to fetch the latest settings right away.
   3\. Sign out and back in: Log out of your Plex account on the server and then log back in. This can refresh the connection and pull down the changes more quickly.

By using these methods, you’ll usually see any webhook adjustments take effect faster than just waiting for the automatic periodic checks.

To debug you can try using <https://webhook.site/> webhook instead of Simkl's webhook to see if your plex is actually sending anything
