Hello!
There are several ways to do that, I'll be writing one of them here.

Since you will be downloading only via nzb, you should install the sabnzbd (or nzbget) app from your client area.
After installation, open the app and go to settings. Add your server in the "Servers" section and create the necessary categories you want (e.g. "TV" with folder/path "TV" - this is the relative path to your already predefined folders, you don't have to change them).
Don't forget to save changes.

Open your sonarr app and go to your settings. First of all you need to set up your indexers in the "Indexers" section. Just add your custom usenet Newznab, along with your URL / API KEY / Categories. Test and save.
Then go to your download client and set your Sabnzbd under Usenet section. For credentials, you should use the following, substituting "username" with, well, your username;

Sabnzbd:
Host: username-sabnzbd.cloud.seedboxes.cc
Port: 443
Use SSL: Yes
API Key: You can get it from the General Settings of Sabnzbd app
Category: tv (You should have created it in Sabnzbd before configuring Sonarr)

For the record, if you decided to use NZBGet instead:
Host: username-nzbget.cloud.seedboxes.cc
Port: 443
Use SSL: Yes
Username & Password of your NZBGet
Category: Series (Should already exist in NZBGet)

Test and save.

Go to your media management, personal recommendation is to enable the "Rename episodes". You can enable the advanced settings if you want and fiddle with whatever renaming options suit you best, if the default is not to your liking.

Don't forget to save changes.

After that, you are ready to add your favourite series. Just click the "Series" button and choose to add one. In the path, choose "/home/user/files/Plex/TV" (without the quotes), choose a profile and click the magnifying glass (add and search button, not just add button). That's it!
For additional series, you don't have to set the path again, it will be by default "/home/user/files/Plex/TV".

A similar process must be done for radarr too for your Movies, just change the folders / categories / paths to be the correct ones.

Since you will be using the automatic offload from your local Plex subfolders towards your Google Plex subfolders (after you have integrated Plex to your encrypted Google drive or encrypted Gogle drive folder), you need to enable the "Ignore Deleted Episodes" setting in Sonarr and "Unmonitor Deleted Movies" in Radarr under media management. This way all files that are moved to Google Drive will be marked as unmonitored and won't be downloaded again.

If you need help regarding the setup of the automatic offload script or some assistance regarding the configuration of the above apps, please open a support ticket from your client area

angoikon This path you mentioned ( /home/user/files/Plex/TV ) is the - Root Folders? If the answer is yes, then i should put /home/user/files/Plex/TV in Sonarr and /home/user/files/Plex/Movies? If not the Root Folders, then what is it? BTW Thanks - by R0lY (over 3 years ago)
