Hi! I know there is an API even though not everything is correctly documented. I also know Plex recently released lists. Does anybody know if there is a way to call the API to get what’s inside one of those lists? Thanks a lot ---

Plex released official documentation, [https://developer.plex.tv/](https://developer.plex.tv/). Not sure if your aware of it. It looks like a new app thing, or web only thing atm. So I don’t think the PMS webclient has the features yet. TBH I didn’t know about it until I read this post, so I might be completely wrong… ---

I did actually see those but this API is for a Plex Server and the information I need is for a Plex account which isn’t managed directly by the server… I have yet to find official documentation for accounts API even though some requests exists. ---

Lists don’t live on the server. They are always connected to the plex user account, which lives on [plex.tv](http://plex.tv) ---

Which id why I’m trying to figure out what api call can retrieve them since a lot of informations that live on [plex.tv](http://plex.tv) can be called through some api requests but I haven’t found the one specifically for the new lists ---

Lists might be missing from the official API documentation because they’re so new. The relevant API features might also still be in flux, because they still could get changed – the public deployment of lists could make that necessary if it reveals some insufficiency which only reveals itself in large workloads. Maybe you could “watch” what [watch.plex.tv](http://watch.plex.tv) is doing, when working with lists. ---
