I thought I read that there was a web-app that I could use to control a Sonos device. I open my web-browser and click on a shortcut and I can then control my device. Is there a way to do this?

Hi Wil,
We have Sonos controller software on a variety of devices which you can find here, but we do not have an official web-based control interface for the system. If you'd like to see an official web-based controller from Sonos, I'd suggest adding your +1 and any comments you have to this Idea thread.
Thanks!

And +1 to this idea : Birdge+ Web Server to control the system extend the memory limit.
Try https://speakerscenes.com.
jisihi also has an open source web app hosted on, I think. node.js if you want to try that. the devices themselves do host a basic http server, but its for diagnostics and UPnP, not playback ux.
we use iPads in an enclosure to display our meeings calendar outside each of our meeting rooms.. i would like to embed a pause / mute button that will mute the speaker is that room..
can i do that using this node?

To expand on the information alluded to above: if you can run jishi's Sonos HTTP API [1] on a computer somewhere, then you can issue a wide range of commands to Sonos speakers simply by invoking URLs. It's a Node.js application.
For example, to pause the speaker in room 'Meeting One', with the Sonos HTTP API server running on a computer at IP 10.0.0.3, you'd simply hit the following URL:
http://10.0.0.3:5005/Meeting%20One/pause
I use this utility for a host of Sonos automation functions, and it works very well.
Alternatively, there are libraries like Python SoCo [2] that require a bit of simple programming, but allow the same kinds of control.
