Help sending command from server to player via HTTP API

Plex Media Server Desktops & Laptops

I’m wanting to send a command from my server (Ubuntu, 192.168.0.5) to my player (Apple TV, 192.168.0.58) via the HTTP REST API (maybe that’s not the correct term?)

I’ve seen some documentation on it but much of it seems pretty old, so not sure if it’s out of date or not.
I cobbled this together but don’t fully understand the documentation I’ve looked at:

http://192.168.0.5:32400/player/navigation/home&X-Plex-Target-Client-Identifier=MY_PLEX_APPLE_TV_ID

All I want to do is send a command to make Plex on the Apple TV go to the top level/home (within the app, not home on the Apple TV), and I’ll use Home Assistant and iOS Shortcuts for other parts of what I’m trying to achieve.
