Notify Sonarr that a plexDVR recording has been added to the library, so that it can update it's database and rename the file.

plexDVR_notify_sonarr.sh

#!/bin/bash

#The main purpose of this script is to notify Sonarr that a plexDVR recording has been added to the library, so that it can update it's database and rename the file.

#This script will find the Sonarr 'series ID' of a TV show (taken as an argument when running the script). It will take that 'series ID' and use it to rescan the directory of the show and rename any eligible files (if the show has the specified tag in Sonarr).

#For each tv series that will contain plex DVR files, go into the "edit series" page of that series in Sonarr and add a "tag" that will be associated with these show from the DVR.

#This script can be used in many ways, but one way is to add this script as a 'notification agent' in Tautulli settings. From the "Configuration" tab, input the folder in which the script is saved, then select the script file. Under the "Triggers" tab, select 'Recently Added'. Under the "Conditions" tab, add " 'Media Type' 'is' 'episode' ". The name of the TV Show will be passed as the argument.

#TWO REQUIREMENTS:
#1) cURL - https://curl.haxx.se/download.html
#2) jq - https://stedolan.github.io/jq/

#Leaving the single/double quotation marks where they are, below you must:
# replace "192.168.1.2" with the IP address of the server/computer running Sonarr,
# replace "8989" with the port that Sonarr is running on,
# replace "REDACTED" with the Sonarr API key (found in Sonarr settings -> General -> Security),
# replace "dvr" with the tag you input on the "series edit" page in Sonarr.
# replace "/usr/bin/jq" with the directory location of the jq application. To find location: execute the command "which jq" from linux/mac terminal, or execute the command "where jq" from windows command prompt.

Tautulli doesn't appear to be passing the show name as a param to the script. If I test run the script and pass it, things work as expected.

Awesome script. I could not get it working with X-Api-Key and had to modify to pass it on the query string.

This helps skip a sonarr download but I occasionally see sonarr download before Plex DVR records. Are you aware of a plexpy option to cancel a recording if it exists on disk?

I got the script to work I run in manually, but when Tautulli calls it I get the following error.
