Its installs are not shown, because another integration uses the same domain, plex\_recently\_added. It works locally and was last updated May 20, 2026. Plex Recently Added is an integration that feeds Plex's recently added media to the Upcoming Media Card. It adds sensors to Home Assistant and talks to the Plex server locally, without needing or conflicting with the default Plex integration. Sensor attributes include direct Plex Web links to each episode and movie, plus season and episode numbers for TV episodes. A merged sensor combines the data from the other sensors into one sorted list. Setup happens in the UI with the Plex address, port, token and SSL choices, and the item limit, section types, libraries, excluded keyword and "on deck" display can be changed later in options. It is installed through the Marketplace. Automatic summary of the README and code of custom-components/sensor.plex\_recently\_added.
