Dodgexander 8 Posted March 10, 2020 Author Posted March 10, 2020 Try omitting this request header because you're not sending xml: -H "Content-Type: application/xml" Yes! In chrome I was able to successfully use: http://192.168.50.149:8096/emby/Users/Public?api_key=be367fefc07547bb8c77206a91046e09&format=xml But trying: http://192.168.50.149:8096/emby/Sessions?api_key=be367fefc07547bb8c77206a91046e09&format=xml Results in: Type 'MediaBrowser.Api.Session.PostFullCapabilities' with data contract name 'PostFullCapabilities:http://schemas.datacontract.org/2004/07/MediaBrowser.Api.Session' is not expected. Add any types not known statically to the list of known types - for example, by using the KnownTypeAttribute attribute or by adding them to the list of known types passed to DataContractSerializer.
Luke 40063 Posted March 10, 2020 Posted March 10, 2020 We'll have to look at that. I would really try to use json if at all possible.
Dodgexander 8 Posted March 11, 2020 Author Posted March 11, 2020 What would be a simple method of writing a command to run to determine if a session is active. It needs to return 0 if active. I have no idea how to retrieve the ActiveWithinSeconds using the API.
Luke 40063 Posted March 11, 2020 Posted March 11, 2020 that's a filter you would use, so if you only wanted sessions active in the last five minutes you could do &ActiveWithinSeconds =300
Dodgexander 8 Posted March 11, 2020 Author Posted March 11, 2020 I'm really out of my depth here. Since I'm no developer I think I will have to give up trying to do what I am. Its been hard enough for me even to pull the entire /Sessions API, let alone create something that can find a specific parameter within that API. I suppose knowledge of JSON/Javascript is required, which I simply don't have.
Dodgexander 8 Posted December 4, 2020 Author Posted December 4, 2020 The author of Autosuspend has just updated to include JSON support and I'm revisiting this to try and create a way for my home server to sleep when not in use. As a test I am using postman to make requests from the api but I can't return anything with ActiveWithinSeconds=300 I'm sure its because I don't really know code, but how do you use a filter like this with the API? I read the documentation but it doesn't seem to have anything on filters.
Luke 40063 Posted December 4, 2020 Posted December 4, 2020 Well first, what have you tried? What does your request look like?

Dodgexander 8 Posted December 4, 2020 Author Posted December 4, 2020 I have it working now, but receive a wall of text in return from the api: [check.JsonPath] enabled = true url = http://192.168.50.149:8096/emby/Sessions?api_key=5e943480810a46428a8d0asc1772b01d&ActiveWithinSeconds =300 jsonpath = [*].NowPlayingItem Any clue how I can make it neater?
Dodgexander 8 Posted December 5, 2020 Author Posted December 5, 2020 The entire current session API. I need to know how to filter a specific item that will prevent the server from sleeping. https://pastelink.net/2byyk
Dodgexander 8 Posted December 6, 2020 Author Posted December 6, 2020 On 05/12/2020 at 08:43, Luke said: Sorry what exactly is the end goal? To detect when there's no current session of emby running. Autosuspend supports parsing JSON from the API, so the request made just needs to return something when a session is active and nothing when its not. At present it works, but when running it returns the entire session API. How can I get it to filter a specific item?
Luke 40063 Posted December 6, 2020 Posted December 6, 2020 have you explored the swagger docs? you can filter by i think device id and possibly user id.
Dodgexander 8 Posted December 6, 2020 Author Posted December 6, 2020 Yes that's one of the first things I did, but its not clear how you add a filter. This is an example used for plex with Xpath (XML): ./MediaContainer[@size > 2] But trying the same with JSON doesn't work. [check.JsonPath] enabled = true url = http://192.168.50.149:8096/emby/Sessions?api_key=5e943485810a46428a8d0acc$ jsonpath = [*].UserId In return, instead of only the user ID active it returns every parameter in the sessions API. I am trying to find out how to get the API to respond with current active user, and if no user at all, nothing.
Luke 40063 Posted December 7, 2020 Posted December 7, 2020 there is no such thing as one single active user as that will be different for each device/session. You will need to use the DeviceId param to filter the sessions by device.

You will need to use the DeviceId param to filter the sessions by device. How can I reduce the output I get from the api? Following the advice of the author of autosuspend I search for: $.[*].NowPlayingItem the api it returns a massive amount of information when I only need it to return something small. Is there an expression I can use to only return the title of what's playing instead? For example when I search the api I see: [Session.SessionInfo{ PlayState PlayerStateInfo{...} How do I make an expression that will return something more basic than the entire now playing info?
Luke 40063 Posted December 7, 2020 Posted December 7, 2020 Quote How can I reduce the output I get from the api? Using the DeviceId filter and then you'll only get information about that one device.

How can I only the title rather than the entire playback info? I don't use multiple devices so filtering out a single device doesn't really help. Edited December 7, 2020 by Dodgexander
Luke 40063 Posted December 7, 2020 Posted December 7, 2020 You have to parse the json payload and get what you need from that.
Dodgexander 8 Posted December 7, 2020 Author Posted December 7, 2020 3 minutes ago, Luke said: You have to parse the json payload and get what you need from that. Okay, so there's no way to receive less overall info from the API when a session is active?
