[**bluetoothctl-assistant(1)**](/man/os/bluez/bluetoothctl-assistant.1)

## [Methods](#Methods)

## [void Push(dict properties)](#void_Push%28dict_properties%29)

Send stream information to the remote device.

If the assistant is in the "active" state, this method uses BASS\_Modify\_Source to update the existing source on the remote device instead of adding a new one with BASS\_Add\_Source.

[**dict properties**](#dict)

Indicate stream properties that will be sent to the peer.

Values:

[**array{byte} Metadata \[ISO only\]**](#array_byte_)

See Metadata property.

[**dict QoS \[ISO only\]**](#dict~2)

See QoS property.

[**object Device \[ISO only, State=local only\]**](#object)

Push to a specific device. Device must be connected and with an active BASS session.

Examples:

[**bluetoothctl**](#bluetoothctl)

> assistant.push <assistant>

## [Properties](#Properties)

## [string State \[readonly\]](#string_State__readonly_)

Indicates the state of the assistant object. Possible values are:

**"idle"**

assistant object was created for the stream

**"pending"**

assistant object was pushed (stream information was sent to the peer)

**"requesting"**

remote device requires Broadcast\_Code

**"active"**

remote device started receiving stream

**"local"**

assistant object was created for a local stream

## [array{byte} Metadata \[readwrite, ISO Only, experimental\]](#array_byte__Metadata__readwrite,_ISO_Only,_experimental_)

Indicates stream Metadata.

## [dict QoS \[readwrite, ISO only, experimental\]](#dict_QoS__readwrite,_ISO_only,_experimental_)

Indicates stream QoS capabilities.

Values:

[**byte Encryption**](#byte)

Indicates whether the stream is encrypted.
