I want to start playing a playlist of my podcast app "Podcast Addict" with Automate, but I don't know how.

I found this page: https://podcastaddict.uservoice.com/knowledgebase/articles/217903-how-to-control-podcast-addict-from-3rd-parties-app where the supported commands are listed. But I cannot find out where exactly to paste the command/intent (in my case "com.bambuna.podcastaddict.service.player.play").

I tried "Start service", "Start app" and "Send broadcast" and tried different combinations filling in this command. But there are so many input arguments and I don't know what they are for. It's kind of confusing.

Can you help me please?

Use the Broadcast send block with Action "com.bambuna.podcastaddict.service.player.play"

Thanks a lot!
I had to add "com.bambuna.podcastaddict" as PACKAGE and "com.bambuna.podcastaddict.receiver.PodcastAddictPlayerReceiver" as RECEIVER CLASS too, to get it work.

Thank you.
I can now play it.
But.. can you start sync?

Tried
"com.bambuna.podcastaddict.service.player.update"
But couldn't :(
