'/library/sections/{sectionId}':
get:
tags:
- Library
summary: Get Library Details
description: |
Returns details for the library. This can be thought of as an interstitial endpoint because it contains information about the library, rather than content itself. These details are:
- A list of `Directory` objects: These used to be used by clients to build a menuing system. There are four flavors of directory found here:
- Primary: (e.g. all, On Deck) These are still used in some clients to provide "shortcuts" to subsets of media. However, with the exception of On Deck, all of them can be created by media queries, and the desire is to allow these to be customized by users.
- Secondary: These are marked with `secondary="1"` and were used by old clients to provide nested menus allowing for primative (but structured) navigation.
- Special: There is a By Folder entry which allows browsing the media by the underlying filesystem structure, and there's a completely obsolete entry marked `search="1"` which used to be used to allow clients to build search dialogs on the fly.
- A list of `Type` objects: These represent the types of things found in this library, and for each one, a list of `Filter` and `Sort` objects. These can be used to build rich controls around a grid of media to allow filtering and organizing. Note that these filters and sorts are optional, and without them, the client won't render any filtering controls. The `Type` object contains:
- `key`: This provides the root endpoint returning the actual media list for the type.
- `type`: This is the metadata type for the type (if a standard Plex type).
- `title`: The title for for the content of this type (e.g. "Movies").
- Each `Filter` object contains a description of the filter. Note that it is not an exhaustive list of the full media query language, but an inportant subset useful for top-level API.
- `filter`: This represents the filter name used for the filter, which can be used to construct complex media queries with.
- `filterType`: This is either `string`, `integer`, or `boolean`, and describes the type of values used for the filter.
- `key`: This provides the endpoint where the possible range of values for the filter can be retrieved (e.g. for a "Genre" filter, it returns a list of all the genres in the library). This will include a `type` argument that matches the metadata type of the Type element.
- `title`: The title for the filter.
- Each `Sort` object contains a description of the sort field.
- `defaultDirection`: Can be either `asc` or `desc`, and specifies the default direction for the sort field (e.g. titles default to alphabetically ascending).
- `descKey` and `key`: Contains the parameters passed to the `sort=...` media query for each direction of the sort.
- `title`: The title of the field.

summary: Get All Libraries
operationId: getLibraries
description: |
A library section (commonly referred to as just a library) is a collection of media.
Libraries are typed, and depending on their type provide either a flat or a hierarchical view of the media.
For example, a music library has an artist > albums > tracks structure, whereas a movie library is flat.
Libraries have features beyond just being a collection of media; for starters, they include information about supported types, filters and sorts.
This allows a client to provide a rich interface around the media (e.g. allow sorting movies by release year).

operationId: uploadPlaylist

absolute path to a directory on the server where m3u files are stored, or the absolute path to a playlist file on the server.
If the `path` argument is a directory, that path will be scanned for playlist files to be processed.
Each file in that directory creates a separate playlist, with a name based on the filename of the file that created it.
The GUID of each playlist is based on the filename.
If the `path` argument is a file, that file will be used to create a new playlist, with the name based on the filename of the file that created it.
The GUID of each playlist is based on the filename.

/hubs/search:
get:
tags:
- Search
summary: Perform a search
operationId: performSearch
description: |
This endpoint performs a search across all library sections, or a single section, and returns matches as hubs, split up by type. It performs spell checking, looks for partial matches, and orders the hubs based on quality of results. In addition, based on matches, it will return other related matches (e.g. for a genre match, it may return movies in that genre, or for an actor match, movies with that actor).
In the response's items, the following extra attributes are returned to further describe or disambiguate the result:
- `reason`: The reason for the result, if not because of a direct search term match; can be either:
- `section`: There are multiple identical results from different sections.
- `originalTitle`: There was a search term match from the original title field (sometimes those can be very different or in a foreign language).
- `<hub identifier>`: If the reason for the result is due to a result in another hub, the source hub identifier is returned. For example, if the search is for "dylan" then Bob Dylan may be returned as an artist result, an a few of his albums returned as album results with a reason code of `artist` (the identifier of that particular hub). Or if the search is for "arnold", there might be movie results returned with a reason of `actor`
- `reasonTitle`: The string associated with the reason code. For a section reason, it'll be the section name; For a hub identifier, it'll be a string associated with the match (e.g. `Arnold Schwarzenegger` for movies which were returned because the search was for "arnold").
- `reasonID`: The ID of the item associated with the reason for the result. This might be a section ID, a tag ID, an artist ID, or a show ID.
This request is intended to be very fast, and called as the user types.

summary: Perform a voice search
operationId: performVoiceSearch
description: |
This endpoint performs a search specifically tailored towards voice or other imprecise input which may work badly with the substring and spell-checking heuristics used by the `/hubs/search` endpoint.
It uses a [Levenshtein distance](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Levenshtein_distance) heuristic to search titles, and as such is much slower than the other search endpoint.
Whenever possible, clients should limit the search to the appropriate type.
Results, as well as their containing per-type hubs, contain a `distance` attribute which can be used to judge result quality.

- name: Activities
description: |
Activities are awesome. They provide a way to monitor and control asynchronous operations on the server. In order to receive real-time updates for activities, a client would normally subscribe via either EventSource or Websocket endpoints.
Activities are associated with HTTP replies via a special `X-Plex-Activity` header which contains the UUID of the activity.
Activities are optional cancellable. If cancellable, they may be cancelled via the `DELETE` endpoint. Other details:
- They can contain a `progress` (from 0 to 100) marking the percent completion of the activity.
- They must contain an `type` which is used by clients to distinguish the specific activity.
- They may contain a `Context` object with attributes which associate the activity with various specific entities (items, libraries, etc.)
- The may contain a `Response` object which attributes which represent the result of the asynchronous operation.

Hubs are a structured two-dimensional container for media, generally represented by multiple horizontal rows.
- name: Playlists
description: |
Playlists are ordered collections of media. They can be dumb (just a list of media) or smart (based on a media query, such as "all albums from 2017").
They can be organized in (optionally nesting) folders.
Retrieving a playlist, or its items, will trigger a refresh of its metadata.
This may cause the duration and number of items to change.
