The `soundtouch` platform allows you to control your [Bose Soundtouch](https://www.soundtouch.com/) speakers from Home Assistant.
The Bose SoundTouch integration allows you to control your [Bose SoundTouch](https://www.soundtouch.com/) speakers from Home Assistant.
By default it supports auto-discovery provided by Home Assistant, and you don't need to add anything to your `configuration.yaml`.
{% include integrations/config_flow.md %}
Alternatively, you can add the following to your `configuration.yaml` file.
```yaml
# Example configuration.yaml
media_player:
- platform: soundtouch
host: 192.168.1.1
port: 8090
name: Soundtouch Living Room
```
Or for multiple hosts
```yaml
# Example configuration.yaml with many devices
media_player:
- platform: soundtouch
host: 192.168.1.1
port: 8090
name: Soundtouch Living Room
- platform: soundtouch
host: 192.168.1.1
port: 8090
name: Soundtouch kitchen
```

You can switch between one of your 6 pre-configured presets using ```media_player.play_media```

You can use TTS services like [Google Text-to-Speech](/integrations/google_translate) or [Amazon Polly](/integrations/amazon_polly) only if your Home Assistant is configured in HTTP and not HTTPS (current device limitation, a firmware upgrade is planned).
A workaround if you want to publish your Home Assistant installation on Internet in SSL is to configure an HTTPS Web Server as a reverse proxy ([NGINX](/docs/ecosystem/nginx/) for example) and let your Home Assistant configuration in HTTP on your local network. The Soundtouch devices will be available to access the TTS files in HTTP in local and your configuration will be in HTTPS on the Internet.
