Authentication

(Authentication)

Overview

API Calls regarding authentication for Plex Media Server

Available Operations

• GetTransientToken - Get a Transient Token
• GetSourceConnectionInformation - Get Source Connection Information
• GetTokenDetails - Get Token Details
• PostUsersSignInData - Get User Sign In Data

GetTransientToken

This endpoint provides the caller with a temporary token with the same access level as the caller's token. These tokens are valid for up to 48 hours and are destroyed if the server instance is restarted.

Example Usage

package main

import(
	"context"
	"github.com/LukeHagar/plexgo"
	"github.com/LukeHagar/plexgo/models/operations"
	"log"
)

func main() {
    ctx := context.Background()

    s := plexgo.New(
        plexgo.WithSecurity("<YOUR_API_KEY_HERE>"),
    )

    res, err := s.Authentication.GetTransientToken(ctx, operations.GetTransientTokenQueryParamTypeDelegation, operations.ScopeAll)
    if err != nil {
        log.Fatal(err)
    }
    if res != nil {
        // handle response
    }
}

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
ctx	context.Context	✔️	The context to use for the request.
type_	operations.GetTransientTokenQueryParamType	✔️	delegation - This is the only supported type parameter.
scope	operations.Scope	✔️	all - This is the only supported scope parameter.
opts	[]operations.Option	➖	The options for this request.

Response

*operations.GetTransientTokenResponse, error

Errors

Error Type	Status Code	Content Type

sdkerrors.GetTransientTokenUnauthorized	401	application/json
sdkerrors.SDKError	4XX, 5XX	*/*

GetSourceConnectionInformation

If a caller requires connection details and a transient token for a source that is known to the server, for example a cloud media provider or shared PMS, then this endpoint can be called. This endpoint is only accessible with either an admin token or a valid transient token generated from an admin token. Note: requires Plex Media Server >= 1.15.4.

Example Usage

package main

import(
	"context"
	"github.com/LukeHagar/plexgo"
	"log"
)

func main() {
    ctx := context.Background()

    s := plexgo.New(
        plexgo.WithSecurity("<YOUR_API_KEY_HERE>"),
    )

    res, err := s.Authentication.GetSourceConnectionInformation(ctx, "server://client-identifier")
    if err != nil {
        log.Fatal(err)
    }
    if res != nil {
        // handle response
    }
}

Parameters
