Other user's watchlists not being detected

[davida72]

I think I'm just doing this wrong but maybe it could be clarified in the docs.

I have a family of five; I'm the admin. They were previously Managed Accounts but recently I've had them sign up to Plex then give them access to my Libraries. They're able to use Plex as intended, I'm able to download Watchlist movies via Watchlistarr but they are not. It says 0 from friends.

So I'm currently trying to figure out what my family members need to be in order for watchlistarr to work correctly.

• a managed account
• access to my libraries
• a friend

Which is it? Thanks!

My guess would be you need to add their plex token as well...

[davida72]

I got it working and they don't need a token. I believe the criteria is

• shared libraries
• friended
• Friends' Watchlists Account Visibility must be changed to 'Friends Only' or 'Friends of Friends'

Took a lot of trial and error to get it working!

May I ask here how can Plex Managed Users utilize this?

• Edit: Disregard, just realized Plex had disabled the Discover feature for Managed Users.
