Unimplemented SoundTouch API Endpoints

Last Updated: January 2026
Source: SoundTouch Plus Wiki
Current Implementation: 35 endpoints (including preset & navigation management discovered via SoundTouch Plus Wiki)
Wiki Documentation: 87 endpoints
Implementation Gap: 52 endpoints

This document provides comprehensive information about SoundTouch API endpoints documented in the community wiki but not yet implemented in this Go library. All examples are based on real device responses and extensive community testing.

Implementation Priority Matrix

🔥 Critical Priority (12 endpoints)

Essential user functionality that significantly impacts user experience.

🎯 High Priority (13 endpoints)

Smart home integration and advanced user features.

📊 Medium Priority (19 endpoints)

Implementation Guidelines

Device Compatibility Matrix

Endpoint	ST-10	ST-300	ST-20	ST-520	Notes
`/playNotification`	✅	❌	❌	❌	ST-10 III series only
`/speaker`	✅	❌	❌	❌	ST-10 III series only
`/audiodspcontrols`	❌	✅	❌	✅	Soundbar products
`/audioproducttonecontrols`	❌	✅	❌	✅	Advanced audio devices
`/getGroup`	✅	❌	❌	❌	Stereo pair support
`/productcechdmicontrol`	❌	✅	❌	❌	HDMI-enabled devices

Error Handling Best Practices

Capability Checking

// Always check capabilities before calling advanced features
capabilities, err := client.GetCapabilities()
if err != nil {
    return fmt.Errorf("failed to get capabilities: %w", err)
}

if !capabilities.SupportsFeature("audiodspcontrols") {
    return ErrFeatureNotSupported
}

Timeout Handling

// Some endpoints timeout on unsupported devices
ctx, cancel := context.WithTimeout(context.Background(), 10*time.Second)
defer cancel()

if err := client.makeRequestWithTimeout(ctx, endpoint); err != nil {
    if errors.Is(err, context.DeadlineExceeded) {
        return ErrEndpointNotSupported
    }
    return err
}

Graceful Degradation

// Provide fallback functionality when advanced features unavailable
if err := client.PlayNotification(); err != nil {
    if errors.Is(err, ErrFeatureNotSupported) {
        // Fallback to volume beep or other notification method
        return client.SendKeyPress("VOLUME_UP")
    }
    return err
}

WebSocket Events Generated

Many POST operations generate corresponding WebSocket events:

Operation	WebSocket Event	Content
✅ `storePreset`	✅ `presetsUpdated`	Updated preset list (IMPLEMENTED)
✅ `removePreset`	✅ `presetsUpdated`	Updated preset list (IMPLEMENTED)
`addGroup`	`groupUpdated`	Stereo pair configuration
`removeGroup`	`groupUpdated`	Stereo pair configuration
`userPlayControl`	`nowPlayingUpdated`	Playback state changes
✅ `addStation`	None	Station immediately plays (IMPLEMENTED)
✅ `removeStation`	`nowPlayingUpdated`	If removed station was playing (IMPLEMENTED)

Security and Authentication

App Key Requirements

<!-- TTS and URL playback require app_key -->
<play_info>
  <url>...</url>
  <app_key>YourApplicationKey</app_key>
  <!-- other fields -->
</play_info>

Bearer Token Usage

// Use existing token system for authenticated requests
token, err := client.RequestToken()
if err != nil {
    return err
}
client.SetAuthToken(token.Value)

Testing Strategy

Real Device Testing

var deviceTests = []struct {
    model     string
    endpoint  string
    supported bool
}{
    {"ST-10", "/playNotification", true},
    {"ST-300", "/playNotification", false},
    {"ST-300", "/audiodspcontrols", true},
    {"ST-10", "/audiodspcontrols", false},
}

func TestDeviceCompatibility(t *testing.T) {
    for _, tt := range deviceTests {
        t.Run(fmt.Sprintf("%s_%s", tt.model, tt.endpoint), func(t *testing.T) {
            // Test endpoint on specific device model
        })
    }
}

Integration Testing

Unit tests for XML marshaling/unmarshaling
Real device validation for each endpoint
WebSocket event verification
Error scenario testing
