sync only users playlists

[magoralczyk]

Due to the use of the api, you get all playlists from all users on the server. If I saw it correctly, you can also use the username to filter only this users playlists, so either the authentication should be changed to userbased or some kind of filtering should be applied to retrieve only the users playlists.

Thanks for the suggestion!
The only way to query user's playlist will be authenticate user with his password. I moved auth configuration out from the OpenPlayer to the Garmin Connect and Disposable form, so that will be easier to achieve (I'm about special characters input).
I'd appreciate more input as I have all playlists shared across household and don't have such a problem: would you prefer to switch to username/password entirely or have it as an option inline with API key?

I personally would prefer user/password, because this is the usual authentication method for users. To generate the api key, you have to be admin, and so you are blocking users with no admin access.

You can find you request fulfilled in the latest release. Please check if filling username/password through Garmin Connect app works fine for you.

I am not opening another issue, to keep it simple.
I uninstalled the last version, since I had problems syncing, nontheless it did authenticate and download some parts of all playlists (seemed like first 5 songs). After I reinstalled the new version, I have the same problem, so I do not think it is related to the new auth.
I configured the url and credentials in the phone app, I went to the menu and had 5 options. I I chose second, sync playlists, it said "no playlists", but if I chose the first option "sync now" the result was an IQ Symbol with exclamation mark, and from this state I could not leave. every btton press lets this symbol again fly in, so I had to reboot hard. Tested this twice, tried delete all downloads also.

Thanks for reporting the crash, I will try to reproduce it.
If you don't have a playlists available, then no playlists pulled in from the server. Did you try QR code flow? The phone app flow might still be buggy.

[magoralczyk]

No, I tried phone app. I prepared my account, only one list with 20 songs. Is there a form of debugging or output?

[vhartsev]

There's no user-facing debugging unless you spin it up locally in the simulator.
I found that there was a bug in GCM flow. Fixed that and added some interface improvements to make the setup steps more obvious.
Please check it out in the latest version.

The Setup works, it shows my one playlist, but no reaction on syncing, I waited a few hours, the watch near to the Access Point. After this I tried again:
-long press down left button to go to the app, long press middle left to go to menu, short press up right to start sync again, and now I see the IQ logo with an exclamation mark.
Now I go back a few times and I am now back on my watchface ( so no longer have to hard reboot)
When I am again going into the music app by longpress down left button, I see again only the IQ logo with exclamation mark.
So I am locked out now from any actions within the app.

Can you please try to uninstall the app, then reboot the watch and install it again. I noticed that it doesn't clear the persistent storage until you uninstall and reboot. Storage structure has changed and it is possible app hits the same broken state if it was already saved locally.
