Install Plex plug-in via SSH from Windows

#1
Hi, can you make a step by step video guide on how to SSH into a NAS and copy/transfer a plugin/bundle file to the plex  plugins folder on a nas? I have a plugin called AUDNexus and it will scrape audible for meta data for a audio book files in a  plex music library. Then use Chronicle audio book player to access the audio book plex library. Let me know if plex will not allow you to make such a video. I think it would be a great video topic. Or, if you know of a resource, can you point me in the right direction on how to accomplish this?

Thanks for your time in advance


UPDATE June 2023

Thanks! I was able to SSH into the nas, and found the directory for the PLEX app and plugins folder was on the NAS. I then used a SFTP client to copy the audnexus.bundle folder into the plex plugins folder and I was able to create a plex music library and select and use the audnexus agent plugin that scrapes Audible meta data for my audio book library to bring in meta data for audio books. Super happy it works! I was just guessing and hoping it worked and it did. Thank you for the quick reply. A video on how to do this would help so many people.

Regards,
Andrew

You could use WinSCP or SSH pscp <path_to_plugin_file> <username>@<NAS_IP_address>:<destination_folder>
But, if your plugin is installed on a Windows PC this will not work since NAS runs on Linux.
