Trakt ​

INFO

It is necessary to set up TMDB for any Trakt import, including ZIP exports. Please follow the configuration guide for instructions.

Ryot supports three Trakt import methods: a public user, a public list, or a ZIP export. The User and List methods use the Trakt API and, on a self-hosted instance, require a Trakt client ID in the environment variables as described in the guide. The Export ZIP method does not require a Trakt client ID.

User ​

All movies and shows can be imported from Trakt along with their ratings, history, comments and lists.

INFO

It is necessary to set your account's privacy to public during the duration of the import. Also, items that have been "check(ed) in" will not be imported.

  1. Login to your Trakt account and go to the settings page.
  2. If your account is set to private, uncheck the box next to it. You can revert this change once the import is complete.
  3. If you have any lists that are private, you need to change them to public. Otherwise they will not be imported.
  4. Find your profile slug. This is usually your username. You can find it by going to your profile page, and checking the URL.
  5. Enter this username in the input.

List ​

All items from a public Trakt list can be imported and added to the collection of your choice.

  1. Enter a URL for the list to import. For example:
txt
https://trakt.tv/users/felix66/lists/trakt-movie-the-new-york-times-guide-to-the-best-1-000-movies-ever-made?sort=rank,asc
  1. Select the collection you want to import the items into.

Export ZIP ​

You can request a ZIP export of your Trakt data from the Trakt data export settings. This method imports your history, ratings, Owned, Watchlist, Favorites, custom lists, and comments.

  1. Request and download your export from the Trakt data export settings.
  2. Leave the downloaded ZIP file intact. Do not extract or modify it.
  3. In Ryot, select Trakt > Export ZIP and upload the ZIP file.

Ryot uses the watched-history files to import watched items and ignores aggregate watched files. Your Trakt profile and lists do not need to be public for this method, and a Trakt client ID is not required.
