SABnzbd Forums

Zabnzb is constantly asking for the API.

I do not understand what to put? where is she from ?

I don't think sabnzbd will ask for the key, but other programs that interact with sabnzbd do.
It allows automatic download systems to send downloads to sabnzbd and then process them.
Are you maybe using Sonarr, Radarr or CouchPotato?

I do not use any program other than sabznb himself

So where is it asking for the API key?

AVERTISSEMENT il y a quelques secondes Clé API manquante, entrez la clé API de la configuration générale dans votre application tierce : 127.0.0.1>Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/64.xxxxxxx Safari/537.36

Are you sure you don't use a browser plugin?

Some "security suites" like to probe each local service they see.
If you don't have your SABnzbd instance connected to the internet, you can disable the warning.

thanks

I lost my Ubuntu media server system and had to move Sonarr, Plex, and SabnzbD to my Ubuntu desktop. Sonarr installed ok and I can see my Sonarr media folders. I have installed sabnzbd from the Ubuntu SNAP store and have got as far as the config page. I do not recall my API key, so I would like to generate a new one.

Would someone PLEASE document how this is done for SABnszbd? All the docs I have found assume I already have an API key, and then whine at me when I can't enter one.

Go to Config and then the General page. It shows the API key.
