## What are `plex_path` and `radarr_path` and when do I use them?
First:
1. if you are not using `add_existing` or `radarr_add_all` to add movies that are **already in Plex** to Radarr, you can ignore these settings and leave them blank.
2. If you *are* using those, and both Radarr and Plex see your movies at the same paths, then you can leave them blank.
For example, if both Radarr and Plex see Star Wars at:
```
/mnt/unionfs/media/movies/Star Wars (1977)/Star Wars.mkv
```
Then you can leave these blank.
The only time you need to set them to anything is if:
1. you are using `add_existing` or `radarr_add_all` to add movies that are **already in Plex** to Radarr
2. Radarr and Plex see the same movie file at different paths.
For example, if Radarr sees Star Wars at:
```
/my-movie-library/Star Wars (1977)/Star Wars.mkv
```
and Plex sees that very same movie file at:
```
/data/movies/Star Wars (1977)/Star Wars.mkv
```
[this will almost certainly be due to docker volume mappings, but might also be caused by Radarr and Plex being on different machines]
Then you would set these:
```
plex_path: /data/movies/
radarr_path: /my-movie-library/
```
You are filling in the unique part of the paths for each app to enable Kometa to translate the location from Plex when it adds the movie to Radarr.
Note that if you replace `/my-movie-library/` in the Radarr path with `/data/movies/` you get the Plex path and vice versa.
???+ tip
The `token` can be found by going to `Radarr > Settings > General > Security > API Key`

First:
1. if you are not using `add_existing` or `sonarr_add_all` to add shows that are **already in Plex** to Sonarr, you can ignore these settings and leave them blank.
2. If you *are* using those, and both Sonarr and Plex see your shows at the same paths, then you can leave them blank.
For example, if both Sonarr and Plex see Bad Monkey at:
```
/mnt/unionfs/media/shows/Bad Monkey (2024)

For example, if Sonarr sees Bad Monkey at:

/my-show-library/Bad Monkey (2024)

and Plex sees that very same show at:

/data/shows/Bad Monkey (2024)
```
