General Settings

General settings apply globally across all connected apps. Find them under Settings → General in the Seekarr web UI. These values are stored in /config/general.json.

API Settings

Setting Default Description
API Timeout 120 Seconds before an outbound API call to an Arr app times out. Increase if your apps are on a slow or remote connection.
Command Wait Delay 1 Seconds between polling attempts when waiting for an Arr command (e.g. a search) to finish.
Command Wait Attempts 600 Maximum polls before a command is declared timed out. At the defaults this gives a 10-minute window per command.

Debug Mode

Setting Default Description
Debug Mode Disabled Logs full API request and response bodies. Useful for diagnosing a connection problem. Disable again once the issue is resolved — debug logs are verbose and fill up quickly.

Environment-Only Settings

The following settings are configured via Docker environment variables rather than the web UI. They must be set before the container starts.

Variable Description
TZ Timezone for log timestamps, e.g. America/New_York. Defaults to UTC.
TRUSTED_PROXIES Comma-separated proxy IPs/CIDRs or *. Required when running behind a reverse proxy. See the Configuration Reference for details.
SECRET_KEY Flask session signing key. Auto-generated and stored at /config/secret_key on first start if not set.
