https://community.spotify.com/t5/Spotify-for-Developers/hls-stream-from-spotify/m-p/5009137#M863 <P>Is there a way to get an HLS stream URL for a music file in spotify ? I'd like to take this URL and paste it into VLC's Media/Open Network Stream to actually stream the file into an non-spotify player like VLC.</P> Sat, 01 Aug 2020 20:03:27 GMT gulfoslides 2020-08-01T20:03:27Z https://community.spotify.com/t5/Spotify-for-Developers/hls-stream-from-spotify/m-p/5009137#M863 <P>Is there a way to get an HLS stream URL for a music file in spotify ?

Sorry, this isn't something that we offer through the Spotify API. The <A href="https://developer.spotify.com/documentation/web-playback-sdk/" target="_self">Web Playback SDK</A> can be used to stream audio in the browser but it doesn't include a URL that you would be able to use in that way.</P> Tue, 04 Aug 2020 16:56:57 GMT https://community.spotify.com/t5/Spotify-for-Developers/hls-stream-from-spotify/m-p/5010825#M875 spotifyjosh 2020-08-04T16:56:57Z
