Can someone explain to me what is expected when wanting to implement MB Connect? I can't find any documentation about it. Thanks.

No one knows how MB Connect is supposed to work? Where and how do I send authenticate to the server with MB connect information?

 

All I found in the HTTP API is the following. The only thing that seems to make sense is the /Connect/Exchange, but I don't know how to get the connect user id.

It seems if this feature should be implemented in clients that the documentation should be made available. :)

What language are you trying to connect with? If javascript, .NET or Java, I'd use the ApiClient, it will make things a lot easier for you.

Ok, so I need to use the ApiClient. Great stuff. I thought MB Connect was separate from it because there was no listed examples for it. Thanks Scott! :)

More specifically what you want is ConnectionManager which is a part of the ApiClient library.

 

The basic workflow is:

 

ConnectionManager.CreatePin()

 

(display to user)

 

ConnectionManager.GetPinStatus() (in a polling loop or after a button press)

 

If pin is confirmed then ConnectionManager.Connect.

Well, it's for JavaScript, but maybe in the future, for python too or any other languages that wishes to implement Emby connect. I'll check it out, thanks Luke.
