Torrin can present its usenet search as a Newznab indexer, so Prowlarr, NZBHydra2, Jackett, AIOStreams, and the *arr apps can search Torrin the same way they’d search any indexer. It’s the companion to the download client integration: use both together and an *arr app can search and grab entirely through Torrin.
This exposes Torrin’s usenet search. Torrent (Torznab) search isn’t available yet.

​
What you get

  • A standard Newznab endpoint backed by Torrin’s usenet search — your own indexers (BYOK) and the built-in indexer both flow through it.
  • Works anywhere “Generic Newznab” is supported (Prowlarr, NZBHydra2, Jackett, the *arr apps, AIOStreams).

​
Requirements

  • A plan with usenet search, and at least one indexer available to your account (a BYOK Newznab indexer or the built-in one enabled) — the same gate as searching inside Torrin.
  • Your Torrin API key.

​
Add Torrin in Prowlarr

Settings → Indexers → Add Indexer → Generic Newznab, then set: Hit Test — it should go green. The same URL + key work in NZBHydra2 (add a “Newznab” indexer), Jackett, or directly in any *arr app’s indexer settings.

​
How it works

1

The app searches Torrin

Prowlarr/*arr calls /newznab/api?t=search|tvsearch|movie with your API key. Supported params: q, imdbid, season, ep.
2

Torrin runs its usenet search

Torrin searches your configured indexers (BYOK + built-in) and returns a standard Newznab RSS feed of results.
3

The app grabs a result

On grab, the download link resolves to the real .nzb through Torrin, which the app hands to its download client — so it works with any client, including Torrin itself.

​
Endpoints

Pair this with the Sonarr/Radarr download client to search and download through Torrin end-to-end.
