The Plex Meta Manager instructions refer to this Plex support document for obtaining a Plex token. [Finding an authentication token / X-Plex-Token | Plex Support](https://support.plex.tv/articles/204059436-finding-an-authentication-token-x-plex-token/) Have you done so, or are you following some other process? F12 should not be necessary. Are you following other instructions that recommend using F12 (I assume to open browser developer/debugging tools?) Have you confirmed that the token was copied correctly? ---
