# Plex

Use Simkl's Plex webhook https\://simkl.com/apps/plex/

#### 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

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.simkl.org/how-to-use-simkl/advanced-usage/platform-integration/linking-simkl-with-popular-media-centers/plex.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
