Verification
âš Important
Always use port 443 with SSL enabled. An incorrect hostname, URL Base or API Key is the most common cause of connection failures. The Root Folder must already exist in Radarr or Sonarr before it can be selected in Overseerr.
✔ Configuration Complete
If the connection tests succeed and the Root Folder can be selected for both Radarr and Sonarr, Overseerr is configured correctly.
