I’m looking at updating some of my other Plex projects (namely the Web Export with sharing support) and was wondering if there is any form of Globally Unique ID for content within Plex? I know each piece has a key (most likely an auto-inc from the DB), but of course this is only unique to that Plex Server. Ideally access to the relevant IMDB keys or similar would be best but I can’t see any way to extract that data i.e. have a tvdbid=“123” attribute on a TV show.
At the moment the closest I can think to do is try a fuzzy match on the item name (and maybe other attributes such as year).
Edit:
In the scanners it used to be media.guid, but I can’t find that on the http server just yet.
go to metadata/[ratingKey]/tree. guid is there
Excellent thank you!
