Sonos Integration, what are the possibilities?

Can someone tell me what are the possibilities when you integrate Sonos speakers in the Smartthings app. Is it more than volume? Can you choose music, playlists, Spotify?

    From the Smartthings app, you can:

    • Play and pause music
    • Skip to the next track
    • Play the previous track
    • Control the volume
    • Play a Sonos Favorite
    • Play a custom message
    • Set up a routine that includes your Sonos device

    In your list I see ‘play a Sonos Favorite’. In the Sonos app I have Playlists in my favourites. Does that mean I could start these playlists in the Smartthings app?

    Yes.  

     

    For reference, I don’t use smartthings, but I do have an integration using the same API on the Sonos side with Lutron Caseta.  I have an entire radio station in my favorites, and every morning my lights come on with the same music station playing.

    You can do the same with Home Assistant and Hubitat as well:

    Does anyone knows this for sure that you can start Sonos Playlists from within the Smartthings app? Not from within a routine, but by clicking a button in the App.
