I’ve been always curious about finding a better way to update specific libraries, it would be nice if a Webhook was available so I can tie it in with smart home devices. ---

A webhook is going **out** from your plex server. i.e. you won’t be able to use them for sending commands towards the server. see [https://support.plex.tv/articles/201638786-plex-media-server-url-commands/](https://support.plex.tv/articles/201638786-plex-media-server-url-commands/) ---
