Refreshing specific Folder with curl

[Lumpe86 0]

Dear Members,

I do some monitoring and get every 15 minutes images about my current data. (see attachment to see an example)

I use curl in order to refresh this specific folder and it works very well:

curl --data '' "http://embyserver:8096/emby/Items/XXXX/Refresh?Recursive=true&ImageRefreshMode=Default&MetadataRefreshMode=Default&ReplaceAllImages=true&ReplaceAllMetadata=true&api_key=yyyy"

XXXX: is the parentId, which is changing from time to time

Why is the folger ID changing and can I prevent changing the folder ID? 

Is there another possibility to refresh a specific folder away from curl?

Thank you for support and greetings from Germany.

Hi, the parentId for a given item does not change.

Hi Luke,

I found my mistake. I had a daily task for refreshing the media library at midnight. At the same time, a script deleted all pictures in the specific folder and copied new pictures in it. It seems to be that it comes to an overlapping with those events. So the folder got a new parentID. After disabling the daily refreshing, it works and the parentID remains.

Merry Christmas, Simon.
