Radarr

Radarr integration enables lifecycle actions on movies managed by Radarr.

  1. Go to Settings → Integrations
  2. Under the Radarr section, click Add Instance
  3. Enter:
    • Name: A label for this instance (e.g., “Main Radarr”)
    • URL: Radarr’s base URL (e.g., http://192.168.1.100:7878)
    • API Key: Found in Radarr → Settings → General → API Key
  4. Click Test Connection to verify
  5. Save

You can add multiple Radarr instances.

Librariarr matches movies to Radarr using TMDB IDs:

  1. During media sync, external IDs (including TMDB) are fetched from your media server
  2. When lifecycle rules need Radarr data, Librariarr queries Radarr by TMDB ID
  3. If a TMDB ID is not available, Librariarr falls back to title + year matching

Once connected, these operations are available via lifecycle rules:

OperationDescription
DeleteRemove the movie from Radarr (optionally delete files from disk)
UnmonitorStop Radarr from monitoring for upgrades
TagAdd a custom tag to the movie in Radarr

The following Radarr metadata is available for lifecycle rule conditions:

  • Quality profile: The assigned quality profile name
  • Monitored status: Whether the movie is monitored
  • Tags: Current tags on the movie
  • Ratings: Radarr ratings data
  • API keys are stored securely in the database and never exposed to the frontend
  • Connection testing uses server-side endpoints with stored credentials
  • API responses are sanitized to mask sensitive fields
  • Matching requires TMDB IDs — movies without TMDB IDs fall back to title + year matching
  • Lifecycle actions call Radarr’s API in real time — Radarr must be reachable
  • Bulk delete operations call the API once per movie — very large batches may take time
