Request user does not match config user about watchstate HOT 7 CLOSED

I also pushed a fix in #88 to force the user id of plex admin account be set to 1

from watchstate.

As there is no updates, i assume the issue has been fixed. If not feel free to post reply.

Indeed, Plex sometimes are making really bad choices, reporting different user id via API compared to one they send. if you do

docker  exec -ti watchstate console  servers:remote --list-users -- Plex

if you see only one user then set the user like this

docker exec -ti watchstate console servers:edit --key user --set 1 -- Plex

in fact you dont have to enable user matching if you are sole user of your plex server.

I'll be making update to force user id to be 1 for admin account.

Interesting. 1 didn't work for me, I had to look at the logs to find the real user ID for my Plex admin user, which was not 1.

Hmm unless there is an update to plex(Pass) that i dont have access to my servers still reporting user id 1 for admin account,

I'm using the ninja/beta PMS (1.32.6.7371) - the webhook is never called with user 1.

Thanks for the report. You are correct indeed, it seems plex did fix the user id in webhooks, I'll be pushing update to fix it it has to be manual though. I'll put warning for poeple.

Fixed in #331
