The Plex Media Server OpenAPI specification is the canonical API contract for PlexAPI.dev. The API reference on this site and the SDKs are generated from this specification.

​
What is OpenAPI?

OpenAPI is a standard format for describing REST APIs. It lets tools generate interactive documentation, client SDKs, server stubs, and tests from a single source of truth. If you are new to OpenAPI, OpenAPI.Info is a comprehensive reference.

​
The PlexAPI.dev specification

The canonical specification is maintained in the plex-api-spec repository as plex-api-spec.yaml. It describes the Plex Media Server endpoints, request parameters, response shapes, authentication, and error handling that the docs and SDKs rely on.

​
How this site uses the specification

This documentation site consumes a rendered version of the specification that includes generated code samples. The sample-rich spec is produced by the Speakeasy workflow defined in the plex-mintlify-docs repository.
