I run plex on my Synology. I’d like to give access to a friend. Recently my sister loaded plex on her tv and sent me her screen name that I entered into Manage library access. I this the correct way or is there a better way to do it. TIA
It is.

(She’ll have to accept the invitation first, before she can access anything. Ask her to click on “Requests” on this page https://app.plex.tv/desktop/#!/profile )
First, make sure that the remote access of your server is working for you, before granting access to others. https://support.plex.tv/articles/200289506-remote-access/
Thank you. Yes, I do have remote access already established. just wanted to clarify the sharing setup. Thank you.
Someone once told me to send them an invite and was confused as they didn’t even have plex setup yet.
That’s also possible. The invitation arrives per email and will prompt the user to create a plex.tv account.
The invited user doesn’t necessarily need to set up his/her own Plex server.
Logging into plex.tv will suffice.
