Connect Sportarr

Add Sportarr to Kochab with your API key and default port 7979.

Sportarr is a Sonarr fork for sports. Kochab uses its API directly (leagues, seasons, games) for library, search, calendar, and the download queue.

What Kochab exposes through Sportarr

  • Blended tabs: Search, Library, Calendar/Wanted, and Sportarr grabs in Downloads
  • Control screen: health, disk, commands, read-only profiles and root folders
  • Detail pages: league/season/game vocabulary via the shared Servarr UI (no TV-style episode numbering)

Not exposed through Sportarr

Full Sportarr admin stays in Sportarr’s web UI. Container control requires a separate host entry if needed.

Before you start

In Sportarr: Settings -> General -> Security -> API Key. Copy the key shown there.
