Shows not returned by getfavorites API Call

Question

I'm using getfavorites to retrieve a list of Favorites. It shows all my songs, playlists etc, but does not return my "Shows".

Is there any reason for excluding "Shows"?

Answer 1

The My Sonos tab (which includes “Shows”) in the Sonos app is a superset of favorites and playlist. That is, it contains items that are not retrievable at this time with the getFavorites and getPlaylists commands. Shows are amongst these items. I’ll let the dev team know that you’d like access to these items as well.
