I’ve been looking for information on APIs for various TV channels that have streaming content. Like Nickelodeon or Disney Channel that let you login with your TV provider and watch shows. My search is coming up empty. Since Plex makes a lot of channels and plugins for such services, I figured someone around here would know. Any ideas? ---

In fact, the old API has been blocked for all plugins that provided streaming contents for some time now! See this over one year old blog: [https://www.plex.tv/blog/subtitles-and-sunsets-big-improvements-little-housekeeping/](https://www.plex.tv/blog/subtitles-and-sunsets-big-improvements-little-housekeeping/) ---

Well, yes, the plugins are on the way out but many of them did use the APIs of those sites. The APIs are still around for many of the sites. I’m just trying to find information on accessing them. ---

So you are asking for doc about the sites API’s, and not the plex api? If so, either contact the different vendors, or reverse the code of the old plugins that still resides on github ---

Right. I’m just not sure how to contact them since looking at the sites there doesn’t seem to be any way to get in touch with them about such a thing. Al least not for most of them. I figured maybe some of the devs here have done so before and could direct me. I could reverse the code but that isn’t likely to be as useful. ---

> [@bobbintb](#): > > there doesn’t seem to be any way to get in touch with them about such a thing Most of them hated plugin devs, and did everything they could to block them, so not surprised here And as said, all I can suggest, is looking at the code of old plugins To grap some, I guess the UAS would be the biggest source, but when streaming plugins was blocked by Plex, I removed them from UAS, since why install something that doesn’t work 😉 To get an old list, look here: > **[History for Resources/plugin\_details.json - ukdtom/UAS2Res](https://github.com/ukdtom/UAS2Res/commits/master/Resources/plugin_details.json)** > > Repository for UAS2.

Cool, thanks. ---
