Next you’ll set up the config file. This tells Kometa how to connect to Plex and a variety of other services.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Before you do this you’ll need:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. TMDb API key. They’re free.
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Plex URL and Token
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
There are a bunch of other services you *can* configure in the config file, but these two are the bare minimum.

#### Getting a TMDb API Key
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note that if you already have an API key, you can use that one. You don’t need another.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Go to https://www.themoviedb.org/. Log into your account [or create one if you don’t have one already], then go to “Settings” under your account menu.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In the sidebar menu on the left, select “API”.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Click to generate a new API key under "Request an API Key". If there is already one there, copy it and go to the next step.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
There will be a form to fill out; the answers are arbitrary. The URL can be your personal website, or probably even google.com or the like.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Once you’ve done that there should be an API Key available on this screen. If you see v3 and v4, you want the v3 key.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Copy that value, you’ll need it for the config file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### Getting a Plex URL and Token
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Plex URL is whatever URL you’d use **from this machine** to connect directly to your Plex server [i.e. NOT app.plex.tv].
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
As with the TMDb API Key, if you already have a Plex Token, you can use that one.

|
