This article explains how to access your stream URLs for stations hosted on SoundStack
To access your stream link(s), first log in to Console (https://console.soundstack.com/) in your preferred web browser.
The next step is to navigate to the Publisher tab in the left-side menu and select the publisher of your choice.
Depending on your setup, the stream URLs can be obtained from either the Egresses or Balancers resources within a specific Publisher.
1. When using Egresses, all you have to do to get the stream link is select the specific Egress resource and use the Copy URL button in the upper right corner to grab the ICY URL. After that, you can paste it wherever you like.
If HLS has been enabled on the stream, you can simply append "/playlist.m3u8" at the end of the URL to obtain the HLS variant's URL.
In the example below, we have one ICY link and one HLS link:
ICY URL: https://ais-saX.cdnstream1.com/XXXX_128.mp3
HLS URL: https://ais-saX.cdnstream1.com/XXXX_128.mp3/playlist.m3u8
Both links can be used for listening, mobile apps, embedding players, or adding them to different directories.
2. When you use Balancers, the system will automatically generate a random URL for you to use.
In the example from the screenshot above, the listening URL will be as follows: https://delivery.audiocdn.com/p3yd9aj42z2/1
This link will be used for mobile apps, embedded players, or simply to listen to the stream.
Note: Currently, the Balancer listen URL does not support HLS.
