I’m working on creating an Amazon Alexa skill that can interact with Plex. I’ve had success creating a function to interact with Plex when I have my credentials hard coded in using the [https://plex.tv/users/sign\_in.xml](https://plex.tv/users/sign_in.xml) page. Unfortunately if I ever want this skill to work for anyone aside from me, I’d need another way to validate a logged in user. My question is, does Plex currently offer an OAuth 2.0 endpoint for interacting with the [plex.tv](http://plex.tv) api? I’ve seen apps with the capability to enter a pin, suggesting there are other auth methods, but I’ve not been able to locate documentation on an OAuth model. Thanks in advance! ---

Any way I can get a copy of your solution to implement locally? ---

No OAuth, but here is my post on how to get shared user access through the API. > **[How to get a transient token from the server](http://forums.plex.tv/discussion/207520/how-to-get-a-transient-token-from-the-server)** > > HI, I’m trying to make a remote controller for in my local network. I want everybody to login in their own account. On my account where the server is linked to it is working. Only with guest user (shared lib users) It doesn’t work. I think it is... ---
