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). ### Example Usage ```csharp using LukeHagar.PlexAPI.SDK; using LukeHagar.PlexAPI.SDK.Models.Components; var sdk = new PlexAPI(accessToken: ""); var res = await sdk.Library.GetAllLibrariesAsync(); // handle response ``` ### Response **[GetAllLibrariesResponse](../../Models/Requests/GetAllLibrariesResponse.md)** ### Errors | Error Type | Status Code | Content Type | | --------------------------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------- | | LukeHagar.PlexAPI.SDK.Models.Errors.GetAllLibrariesBadRequest | 400 | application/json | | LukeHagar.PlexAPI.SDK.Models.Errors.GetAllLibrariesUnauthorized | 401 | application/json | | LukeHagar.PlexAPI.SDK.Models.Errors.SDKException | 4XX, 5XX | \*/\* | ## GetLibraryDetails ## Library Details Endpoint This endpoint provides comprehensive details about the library, focusing on organizational aspects rather than the content itself. The details include: ### Directories Organized into three categories: - **Primary Directories**: - Used in some clients for quick access to media subsets (e.g., "All", "On Deck"). - Most can be replicated via media queries. - Customizable by users. - **Secondary Directories**: - Marked with `secondary="1"`. - Used in older clients for structured navigation. - **Special Directories**: - Includes a "By Folder" entry for filesystem-based browsing. - Contains an obsolete `search="1"` entry for on-the-fly search dialog creation. ### Types Each type in the library comes with a set of filters and sorts, aiding in building dynamic media controls: - **Type Object Attributes**: - `key`: Endpoint for the media list of this type. - `type`: Metadata type (if standard Plex type). - `title`: Title for this content type (e.g., "Movies"). - **Filter Objects**: - Subset of the media query language. - Attributes include `filter` (name), `filterType` (data type), `key` (endpoint for value range), and `title`. - **Sort Objects**: - Description of sort fields. - Attributes include `defaultDirection` (asc/desc), `descKey` and `key` (sort parameters), and `title`. > **Note**: Filters and sorts are optional; without them, no filtering controls are rendered. ### Example Usage ```csharp using LukeHagar.PlexAPI.SDK; using LukeHagar.PlexAPI.SDK.Models.Components; using LukeHagar.PlexAPI.SDK.Models.Requests; var sdk = new PlexAPI(accessToken: ""); var res = await sdk.Library.GetLibraryDetailsAsync( sectionKey: 9518, includeDetails: IncludeDetails.Zero ); // handle response ``` ### Parameters | Parameter | Type | Required | Description | Example | | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `SectionKey` | *int* | :heavy_check_mark: | The unique key of the Plex library.
