# Radarr Attributes

Configuring [Radarr](https://radarr.video/) is optional but will allow you to send movies to a Radarr instance when 
they're found missing while updating a library's collections.

???+ warning
    
    Radarr V2 may work, but it is not supported. Please upgrade to V3 if you can.

Items in your List Exclusions will be ignored by PMM.

A `radarr` mapping can be either in the root of the config file as global mapping for all libraries, or you can specify 
the `radarr` mapping individually per library.

At the library level, only those settings which are different to the global settings need to be specified; there is an 
example of this at the end of the page.

Below is a `radarr` mapping example and the full set of attributes:
```yaml
radarr:
  url: http://192.168.1.12:32788
  token: ################################
  add_missing: false
  add_existing: false
  upgrade_existing: false
  root_folder_path: S:/Movies
  monitor: movie
  availability: announced
  quality_profile: HD-1080p
  tag: pmm
  search: false
  radarr_path: /media
  plex_path: /share/CACHEDEV1_DATA/Multimedia
```

???+ tip
    
    The `token` can be found by going to `Radarr > Settings > General > Security > API Key`

    The `quality_profile` must be the exact name of the desired quality profile, including all spaces and 
    capitalization.

* You can set most attributes per collection by using the [Radarr Settings](../files/arr.md#radarr-definition-settings) 
in the collection definition.

![Radarr Details](images/radarr.png)

Based on that UI, the settings would be [settings not based on things in this image are shown as `#`; url and token are 
of course required they are not shown here to focus on the settings that are shown above]:

```yaml
radarr:
  url: #
  token: #
  add_missing: #
  add_existing: #
  upgrade_existing: #
  root_folder_path: /movies
  monitor: movie
  availability: announced
  quality_profile: HD-1080p
  tag: 
  search: true
  radarr_path: #
  plex_path: #
```

# Other examples:

Specifying different options for specific libraries:

In this example we have two Radarr instances, standard and 4K, and four libraries showing how one can override 
individual settings at the library level. Also, movies are being added to the "Library05" library outside Radarr via a 
custom script and I want those new movies added to Radarr for tracking.

```
libraries:
  Library01:     # this library uses the default radarr config
    collection_files:
      - file: config/Movies.yml
