Broadcast API exposed?

jtzemp opened this issue · 2 comments

Hi, @rithvikvibhu. Thanks for doing such an amazing job at documenting these endpoints!

I was wondering if the broadcast feature with Google Home is a private, local network API similar to what you've documented. I'd like to be able to tap into that for a hobby project on my own network. I'm hoping I can trigger a broadcast via an internal API.

Thanks!

Sorry to disappoint you, but no. It's a cloud based feature. But there are solutions which are used by Home Assistant and Tasker which basically act as a Cast client, and stream an audio file. You could even use a text to speech engine and then send it.

Thanks for the tip! I'll close this issue out.
