Is there a way to have the server return a json object vs xml when using the server rest api?
http://localhost:32400/library
i tried to set the Content-Type to application/json on the get request. but no luck.
I don’t thinks so. XML is pretty much it. Why do you need JSON? or is it just a matter of preference?
I want to make a web client for plex. just easier using json in javascript vs xml imo. XML will work fine though.

JSON would be much more light weight too

Like with most just add:
‘Accept’: ‘application/json’
to your headers.
It works. I use this.

I have tried this both from my app and SOAP UI. This does not work against plex.tv, will try it against the media server itself.
Edit: please ignore, can reach json versions by using the .json extension rather than a header.
Can you provide an example of the request URL to return json data?
This was a quick hack I did awhile back, it does have a serious bug… but enough to get going:
Did anyone got the json object out of plex media tv ?
