Webhook payload is containing dummy Account values

Hi,
I’m trying to integrate the webhook with an external service, my Plex instance has multiple accounts, but all webhook payload contains always

"Account":{"id":0,"thumb":"","title":""}

That likely means that you’re playing media from a device which is not signed in to a Plex account (the embedded web client allows this, for example. In that event, since there is no account, the server sends the event with the id 0 account which is unnamed (the admin account is id 1).

If you are playing from a signed-in client and are seeing this behavior then something is going really wrong and (debug, not verbose) server logs will likely be needed.

Thanks, I have found entries from iPad with the right value on the Account field.

I did few tests, using a browser signed with a Plex account, it returns empty account field if the plex-home is allowing guest access. I updated my instance by disabling the Guest access and now the payload is containing my plex account details for the admin user
