MCWS Playlist/Build Suggestion return PlaylistID in Response
« on: September 27, 2020, 12:46:25 pm »

Imo, the Method Playlist/Build should return the ID of the Paylist that was created. Currently it returns a response like this

Code: [Select]
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?>
<Response Status="OK"/>

Instead it should return the same as Playlists/Add already does
Code: [Select]
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?>
<Response Status="OK">
<Item Name="PlaylistID">2141104553</Item>
</Response>

A method to add files to an existing playlist in bulk similar to Build would also be neat. Or possibly even a replaceContent type of method as getting things into the right order is also a bit of a hassle. But I understand that you probably built that for UIs where you would drag a song from A to B.

Ofc, all these things are not required. With enough plumbing you can make everything work. It would make things easier with less network calls required, however.

Good suggestion.  We'll have it in the next build.

Thanks :)
