Did your user log out and back in after the main update? And their user on Ombi is a Plex user right?

and in your Plex settings, you have enabled that option?

[dr3am37]

The user is me and I didn't have Ombi before the last update, logged in and out several times and my user is a Plex user. Plex settings has the option enabled and it works (stuff get requested, just not notified when processed as opposed to manually requesting in Ombi)

Your user the admin?

I noticed the same thing, new install of Ombi, never used anything before 4.16.x. Used it from my own account, which is the Plex owner. However, I only tried it with one show, which already ended many years ago.

Since it didn't work, I wasn't going to rely on it, and didn't try further. Also, since it doesn't fetch all seasons, instead only the latest, it also isn't useful for me anyway.

Users with the Admin or Power User role in Ombi don't get notifications, this is normal behaviour

Sorry this is a bit old but I just came across this issue too. I have a user that's able to add to their watchlist via Plex and their requests come through in Ombi. The problem is that I receive no notification when requests are submitted this way. If that same user logs into Ombi and manually submits a request, I get a notification so I can either approve or deny the request.
