Title: xSchedule API
Post by: futuretechguy on December 12, 2018, 05:05:55 PM
Hi guys,

I am creating an interactive web page for my audience and I need help with 2 issues that I am trying to resolve.

If I send the API command “Jump to specified step in current playlist” via URL GET it works as expected regardless of the length of the parameter string.

However, if I send the same command via web service request e.g “{Type:"command",Command:"Jump to specified step in current playlist",Parameters”First Snow”,Data:"0",Reference:""}” a JSON structure exception is returned if the parameter string is more than 10 characters. I am thinking my command structure is not correct.

The other issue is that I don’t see way to get artist or album data via the API. Other than %ARTIST% and %ALBUM% (which does not seem to work via the API) is there a way to query this data via the web Service?
