seerr Bridge for Jellyfin

seerr Bridge adds a Jellyseerr-powered request page to Jellyfin without exposing the Jellyseerr API key to browsers.

Standard Install

1. In Jellyfin, open Dashboard -> Plugins -> Repositories.

2. Add this repository:

   Name: Jellyseerr Bridge
   URL: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/monjaka/jellyfin-plugin-jellyseerr-bridge/main/manifest.json
   

3. Open Dashboard -> Plugins -> Catalog.

4. Install Jellyseerr Bridge.

5. Restart Jellyfin.

6. Open Dashboard -> Plugins -> Jellyseerr Bridge and configure:

   • seerr Base URL
   • seerr API Key
   • Enable Request Submission

7. Install the Jellyfin Web navigation button:

   curl -fsSLO https://raw.githubusercontent.com/monjaka/jellyfin-plugin-jellyseerr-bridge/main/scripts/install-web-loader.sh
   sudo bash install-web-loader.sh
   sudo systemctl restart jellyfin

8. Hard refresh Jellyfin in your browser.

The request page is also available directly:

https://your-jellyfin-domain/JellyseerrBridge/Page

Updating After Jellyfin Updates

Jellyfin updates can replace Jellyfin Web's index.html. If the Request menu item disappears, rerun:

curl -fsSLO https://raw.githubusercontent.com/monjaka/jellyfin-plugin-jellyseerr-bridge/main/scripts/install-web-loader.sh
sudo bash install-web-loader.sh
sudo systemctl restart jellyfin

Uninstall

Remove the Jellyfin Web navigation button:

curl -fsSLO https://raw.githubusercontent.com/monjaka/jellyfin-plugin-jellyseerr-bridge/main/scripts/uninstall-web-loader.sh
less uninstall-web-loader.sh
sudo bash uninstall-web-loader.sh
sudo systemctl restart jellyfin

Then uninstall Jellyseerr Bridge from Dashboard -> Plugins.

Features

• Jellyfin-hosted request page for search, discovery categories, and media requests.
• Movie and series detail views, including per-season request buttons for series.
• Discovery filters for rating, release date, and major streaming providers.
• Sorting by release date, title, and rating.
• Jellyseerr-provided availability and request status drives request buttons.
• Server-side forwarding to Jellyseerr using a configured Jellyseerr URL and API key.
• Narrow request API that validates input instead of acting as an open proxy.
• Plugin-served Jellyfin Web entry script for a Request tab and side-menu Requests entry.

Security Model

The Jellyseerr API key is stored only in Jellyfin's plugin configuration and is used server-side by the plugin.

Browsers call Jellyfin plugin endpoints. They never receive the Jellyseerr API key.

Request submission is disabled by default. An administrator must explicitly enable it in plugin configuration.

The request endpoint accepts only:

• mediaType: movie or tv
• mediaId: TMDB ID
• is4k: optional boolean
• seasons: optional "all" or a list of season numbers for TV

It does not forward arbitrary request bodies to Jellyseerr.

Build From Source

Install the .NET SDK required by the target Jellyfin version, then:

dotnet restore
dotnet build -c Release

The plugin DLL will be under:

src/Jellyfin.Plugin.JellyseerrBridge/bin/Release/
