API endpoint to scan a single library

[alextruppel]

Hi everyone! I know this can be used to trigger a scan of all libraries in Jellyfin:

Code:

http://jellyfin-ip-etc.../library/refresh?api_key=my-api-key

But is there a way to trigger a refresh of just a single library? This is because I have multiple libraries, some smaller libraries have new files being constantly added, whereas some large libraries almost never change and also take easily 1 hour or more to scan, not to mention that they pull 80MB/s from my NAS during the entire time of the scan. Ideally, I'd be able to trigger a re-scan of only some libraries when they change.

Thank you!

When I go to Dashboard > Libraries, and scan for updates on an individual library I see this in the browser developer console.

Code:

Looks like the library has an Items ID that you need to use?
