HACS version of the Jellyfin integration pending merging into core
The Jellyfin integration exposes a Jellyfin server as a Media Source in Home Assistant. Support is currently limited to music libraries only. Other libraries will not appear in the Media Browser. This integration has been tested with Jellyfin server version 10.6.4, but should support older versions as well.
The Jellyfin integration is configured through the Home Assistant user interface. In the Configuration page, select Integrations and click on the + button and choose Jellyfin.

The Jellyfin integration retrieves media items from your Jellyfin libraries using an Artist -> Album -> Track hierarchy. In order for the Media Browser to display thumbnails for artists and albums, Jellyfin has to include metadata for artists and albums. This is not enabled by default.
To enable this, navigate to the Jellyfin dashboard and select Plugins. Choose which provider you would like to use for metadata retrieval (AudioDB and MusicBrainz are the two default providers) and select Settings. Enable the checkbox for "Enable this provider for metadata searches on artists and albums.".
