### Response
**[T.nilable(::PlexRubySDK::Operations::GetRecentlyAddedLibraryResponse)](../../models/operations/getrecentlyaddedlibraryresponse.md)**
## get_all_libraries
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).
### Example Usage
```ruby
require 'plex_ruby_sdk'
s = ::PlexRubySDK::PlexAPI.new(
client_id: "gcgzw5rz2xovp84b4vha3a40",
client_name: "Plex Web",
client_version: "4.133.0",
client_platform: "Chrome",
device_name: "Linux",
)
s.config_security(
::PlexRubySDK::Shared::Security.new(
access_token: "<YOUR_API_KEY_HERE>",
)
)
res = s.library.get_all_libraries()
if ! res.object.nil?
# handle response
end
```
### Response
**[T.nilable(::PlexRubySDK::Operations::GetAllLibrariesResponse)](../../models/operations/getalllibrariesresponse.md)**
## get_library_details
## 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
```ruby
require 'plex_ruby_sdk'
s = ::PlexRubySDK::PlexAPI.new(
client_id: "gcgzw5rz2xovp84b4vha3a40",
client_name: "Plex Web",
client_version: "4.133.0",
client_platform: "Chrome",
device_name: "Linux",
)
s.config_security(
::PlexRubySDK::Shared::Security.new(
access_token: "<YOUR_API_KEY_HERE>",

| `section_key` | *::Integer* | :heavy_check_mark: | The unique key of the Plex library. <br/>Note: This is unique in the context of the Plex server.<br/> | 9518 |
| `include_details` | [::PlexRubySDK::Operations::IncludeDetails](../../models/operations/includedetails.md) | :heavy_minus_sign: | Whether or not to include details for a section (types, filters, and sorts). <br/>Only exists for backwards compatibility, media providers other than the server libraries have it on always.<br/> | |
