# Plex (*plex*) ## Overview API Calls that perform operations directly against https://Plex.tv ### Available Operations * [getPin](#getpin) - Get a Pin * [getToken](#gettoken) - Get Access Token ## getPin Retrieve a Pin from Plex.tv for authentication flows ### Example Usage ```typescript import { PlexAPI } from "@lukehagar/plexjs"; async function run() { const sdk = new PlexAPI(); const xPlexClientIdentifier = ""; const strong = false; const result = await sdk.plex.getPin(xPlexClientIdentifier, strong); // Handle the result console.log(result) } run(); ``` ### Parameters | Parameter | Type | Required | Description | | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | | `xPlexClientIdentifier` | *string* | :heavy_check_mark: | The unique identifier for the client application
This is used to track the client application and its usage
(UUID, serial number, or other number unique per device)
| | `strong` | *boolean* | :heavy_minus_sign: | Determines the kind of code returned by the API call
Strong codes are used for Pin authentication flows
Non-Strong codes are used for `Plex.tv/link`
