Setup Sources
Generate a link to add audiobook sources to Sponge
How It Works
Use this form to generate a special link. Send it to yourself (e.g. email or text) and open that link from your Apple Watch to configure an audiobook source in Sponge without having to type it on your tiny screen.
This form runs entirely in your browser—no data is sent to any server. Your credentials stay on your device.
Enter Your Server Details
All fields are optional. Fill in what you'd like to pre-populate on your watch.
Your Setup Link
Send this link to yourself (via email, message, etc.) and open it on your Apple Watch to add the source to Sponge.

Manual URL Construction
You can also construct your own setup URL without using this form. The URL format is:
https://spongeaudio.com/add-source/audiobookshelf?url=...&username=...&password=...
Parameters:
- url — Your server URL (e.g.,
https://books.example.com). Must be URL-encoded. - username — Your username. Must be URL-encoded if it contains special characters.
- password — Your password in plaintext. Must be URL-encoded if it contains special characters.
- p — An obfuscated password. The form above uses this parameter instead of
password.
All parameters are optional. If you're constructing your own URL, we recommend using the password parameter with your plaintext password rather than trying to generate the obfuscated p parameter yourself.
