Hey! Welcome to the community 🙂 

If you are trying to add someone you are not friends with on Facebook then there are two options:

- If you know their Spotify username, you can search for them directly using "spotify:user:USERNAME" in the main search box. Note that their Facebook username and Spotify username will be different, in fact if they created their account using Facebook their Spotify username will be a whole load of numbers. 

- Get them to send you a playlist outside of Spotify (Right click > Copy HTTP link) and you will be able to get to their profile from the playlist.
