You should’ve created a custom scope mapping (code in the first post). Then you need to use this custom scope mapping in your proxy provider. You should see it in the right list Selected Scopes.

🤦 That's just it... I've created the Scope Mapping as a Plex Source Mapping!

I have it now on the Proxy Provider, still I land on the login page... hmmmm...

Try incognito tab. If it works there - clear browsing history.

You’re most welcome.
