I have a collection of German documentaries and ideally I’d like to make them available via Jellyfin.
Is there a plugin to index those? Hell, is there even an index database for that type of thing?

    I would imagine they’re indexed as movies? Try making a separate movie library for them named Documentaries and see how that goes

    for german documentaries I actually made two seperate collections
    one for single episode movies like this one
    and one for episodic shows like Terra X or Feuer & Flamme
    the later collection has the least issues scraping metadata

    I just store them as regular movies and TV shows. Documentaries are a genre, not a separate media type imo.
