I see that I can trigger the playing of music on the local USB drive or with an URI. Is there a way to trigger the playing of music from services like Spotify and iHeart?
A related question to the mentioned PDF from above:
@zpl1025 Are you at Arylic aware of constantly updating and publishing this documentation?
I use it for an iOS app, too. And I would like to be sure that I’m using the latest API documentation instead of an outdated one.
Btw: For all of you are interested in, I’m currently porting this documentation to Markdown, and I will publish it on GitHub, in the near future. If you are interested in, please ping me.
The document is actually very old and did not update for a while. But anyway the API is stable also in the past, we just added new API recently for better handling the playlist. And will update it later, and now the major job is to release the firmware first
Good job, please consider to let me create the repo and join in to contribute, so it would look more official
I will ping you again when its done from my side. We can then chat about to handover that documentation.
I could imagine finding this documentation (when it’s done) under: https://developers.arylic.com/httpapi/
Btw: I would like to recommend that you (aka Arylic) create a subdomain for all developer related stuff. It’s common practice to do that. Posting documentations on various places here in the forum is not very practical. A place like https://developers.arylic.com for the entire tinker community would be awesome!
Wow, the document looks so nice, more convinient than the old PDF, great job.
It’s a good idea for the developpers.arylic.com, but I’m concerning we currently have not too much documents. And for now I prefer to create a board in forum for developping topics. It’s a community for people to discuss and share, that’s more important. And use the developpers.arylic.com to host the docuements only.
And I need to check with Linkplay if we can publish their APIs officially. It’s no problem for individuals.
Having https://developers.arylic.com just for hosting all the documents would be a good start. As a landing page a plain linked list could be enough, imho.

Oh indeed, it was typed up above and i was scared that the information was no longer available. Are the firmware (possibly changelogs) available somewhere?
we currently just summerised the major changes when release firmware, and which have been posted in forum, and did not write down all changes for each model yet.
Do you think that is something you would eventually add?
I would guess streaming services are the primary way people listen to music so it would be nice to be able to use the API’s to trigger this. Even if it was just as simple as start and stop.
