Monitoring unmatched via API call

I’ve been seeing lately episodes found by the scanner but no metadata fetched. I created an auto collection for TV shows to list these so I can click through them to refresh the metadata at which point they work. What I’d like to do is add a sensor on my home assistant to highlight when I need to go into Plex to do this but cannot get that collection to show in the API.

If I use http://192.168.0.100:32400/library/sections/1/collection/? I get the list of collections but this one doesn’t show up.

Any ideas how I can call back to Plex to see if there are items in that collection?

When you edit your collection, you’ll see the key in the url, like:

In above, my key for the collection is 74606

So I can then use this url:

that will return:

And in above, I see 31 shows with episodes that matched my collection

Great - I was close as I’d found the the ID just not the right collection URL. Cheers,
