I hit the 100 user limit so I am looking for an easy method to purge inactive friends and family. Is there a way to identify friends who never connected to my server in the last 3 or 4 months? I know we can view top users, but I want to view bottom users.
I use Tautulli for this. I can sort by user and the last time they streamed something. If they havenāt watched anything in 3 monthsā¦ā¦ NUKED.
Thanks, Tautulli sounds like what I need.
My original plan was to setup a cronjob to run every 24 hours to look for all active users
cat /var/lib/plexmediaserver/Library/Application\ Support/Plex\ Media\ Server/Logs/Plex\ Media\ Server.* | grep -a -i āuser isā | awk ā{print $12}ā | sort | uniq >> outputfile.txt
Then check the file in 3-4 months and cross reference them in the friends list then start purging the users that do not appear.
Your method seems less painful, appreciate the feedback. 
Plex Dashboard ā Play History. You can sort by user and choose a time period. Only users that have streamed from your server are listed. If theyāre not listed, they did not stream from your server.
Tautulli is very nice. It has more detail than the Plex Dashboard. You can see full history per user. What they streamed, when they streamed it, did it direct play or transcode, etc.
Cool, I didnāt notice that page before. I can scroll through and see all the activity but I didnt see an option to export or copy the list. Do you know if that is available or possible some how?
Iām not aware of a way to export the information from Plex Media Server.
