Checking using Software/API if session in progress (NOT if client is connected)

[kayti]

Hello,
is it possible to check if a session is in progress? I can check via API if clients are connected to sessions/apps (/api/clients/list), but what about session/app itself?

I'm trying to integrate it into my Home Assistant, I can disconnect session/close app via PowerShell Script using API, but now I'm trying to find a way to determine, if session is going/app opened or not. /api/apps doesn't return such information.

You can but only from client's perspective currently, which is way too tedious to implement. I can add a new API for that if needed.

It would be nice to have, thanks :)

Here you go!

Now when getting /api/apps, the returned JSON will contain a field named current_app with the current running app's UUID in string.

Thanks :D Will test soon.

hmm... When I'm running default app for virtual screen, current app is empty, is it by design?

[ClassicOldSong]

Ah yes, virtual display and input only don't have UUID. Will consider adding UUID for them in the future.

OK, thanks, so I suppose workaround for now would be making "app" for desktop using virtual display?
