My Question or Issue

I'm not able to see my Sonos speakers in the /player/devices list, despite actively playing to a device via Spotify Desktop on my Mac: 

√ ~ ⮕ curl -H "Authorization: Bearer <Valid Token>" https://api.spotify.com/v1/me/player/devices
{
  "devices" : [ {
    "id" : "<id>",
    "is_active" : false,
    "is_private_session" : false,
    "is_restricted" : false,
    "name" : "SNS004318",
    "type" : "Computer",
    "volume_percent" : 42
  }, {
    "id" : "<id>",
    "is_active" : false,
    "is_private_session" : false,
    "is_restricted" : false,
    "name" : "Galaxy S9",
    "type" : "Smartphone",
    "volume_percent" : 100
  } ]
}

I would expect several more speakers to show here.

I've reviewed the API recommendations, but as far as I can tell everything is correct. I am using the same account on both, and the device is available and active in the device picker. Any other suggestions?

Hey there, thanks for reaching out!

Let's dive into this. I've taken a look and it sounds like Sonos speakers are currently not supported to be controlled through this API (restricted device). You might be able to use the Sonos API to control Sonos devices: https://developer.sonos.com/reference/control-api/. Let me know if you have any questions!

Have a great day,
