[Feature Request] CCLI Auto Reporting integration

[snowcondor]

It would be good to integrate the new CCLI auto-reporting.

It appears that as of around August 2024, CCLI are working directly with developers in bringing this feature to as many presentation platforms as possible. Here's the promotion page. https://au.ccli.com/auto-reporting/ Are we able to contact CCLI to start this process?
It is a big selling point for some churches. This is one feature that I've looked for myself as we find it inconvenient to report our song usage. Hopefully this can be incorporated.

Apparently this was an old API, and we got the same response as here: #572 (comment)

Apparently they might have bought Presenter, and want to stop newer presentation softwares from benefitting from SongSelect/CCLI integration, to gain more users and revenue by the looks of it.

Thanks for your response @vassbo. Please forgive my little rant. 😄 It seems very strange to me that it's no longer available as their website has a big banner at the top of it that says "NEW! Auto-reporting is here." Has this banner been there for a while? The auto-reporting page itself has a good handful of other presentation solutions indicated on it too. It just seems rather counter-intuitive to me that they'd still be promoting it.

Well, let's hope they come to their senses. 😄 I wonder if it's possible to create a competitive alternative to CCLI to support all the programs they are abandoning. 😜

Yeah, no worries! It has probably been there for a while. I think they will update it now as we mentioned it.

Someone's gotta make a better solution available for everyone!
