Homepage jellyfin api

Posted by simplebenn

After upgrading to jellyfin 12.1 I am on sparkbox 1.6.719. My homepage on port 3000 shows API Error: The string did not match the expected pattern. for jellyfin. From the ai I have confirmed the my api and url are correct in the services files.

The current SparkBox media pin is Jellyfin 10.11.11, not 12.1. SparkBox is behind the Jellyfin version you named, and the app’s own updater must stay off because SparkBox replaces the whole image. Please first check whether this is the built-in Homepage tile or a separate Homepage configuration: open the Homepage page and tell me whether the error appears on the Jellyfin tile/stat itself, or only when you click the tile. That distinction matters because the built-in Jellyfin widget calls the server at http://sb-jellyfin-media:8096 from inside the Homepage container, while the clickable tile uses the browser-facing host and port. I’m not treating the quoted AI confirmation that the URL/API are correct as evidence; it has no source access.
