It works great. This is a flow i use to play a radiostation or a playlist from Sonos favorites > **[Radiozender opzoeken | Homey](https://homey.app/en-us/flow/nUkCsB/)** This are some possibilities with the Sonos api ## Favorites It now has support for starting favorites. Simply invoke: `http://localhost:5005/living room/favorite/[favorite name]` and it will replace the queue with that favorite. Bear in mind that favorites may share name, which might give unpredictable behavior at the moment. ## Playlist Playing a Sonos playlist is now supported. Invoke the following: `http://localhost:5005/living room/playlist/[playlist name]` and it will replace the queue with the playlist and starts playing. With a script i shuffle my radiostations and playlists every 2 weeks This way you also have the ability to easily raise or lower the volume ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/d/7/d70c15a60bbb07e1b00b834808484c1b128e5e6f.jpeg) --- _[View the full topic](https://community.homey.app/t/playing-sonos-favorite-from-homeyscript/47262)._
