My Question or Issue

When I try to upload my playlist it will not show a list of the songs like it used to. Instead it now just shows a link.  I right click on my spotify playlist and select "share" and then "Copy Playlist Link" and it doesn't show up like it used to however other people are able to do it. 

Another problem is that I can't create a small link if I right click and upload a single song.  It creates a big box but not a smaller version of it.  I've tried typing in "small" and it does not work. 

Thank you!

Hey @musicorumgenius 

You should get it work when you use a Spotify URI. The :small tag work with the URI only. You can read more about posting playlists here.

If you are using an URI and it still doesn't work, does it look like this:?

spotify:playlist:4TbyuRDj5DjZQwcPEFM1Zs

User playlist URI are usually like this:

spotify:user:1185903410:playlist:4TbyuRDj5DjZQwcPEFM1Zs

and this way it should definitely work.

You can find your username by copying either the playlist link (not URI) and pasting it somewhere, or going to your spotify account. It's under Account Overview.

I also wrote a longer and more detailed post on links and URI. Maybe that has information you need. 🙂

Let me know how you get on! 🙂

It didn't work.  I am trying to upload a playlist.  Before all I needed to was right click the playlist and hover over share and then choose "copy playlist link" and it would work.

When I click on that it shows up like your first option

spotify:playlist:4TbyuRDj5DjZQwcPEFM1Zs

 I've tried to make my User playlist URI are usually like the way you had it here:

spotify:user:1185903410:playlist:4TbyuRDj5DjZQwcPEFM1Zs

For me, my user ID was "peppaface2"

spotify:user:peppaface2:playlist:1AyMsreCMjyoeBKKRRlIiy

Is my user supposed to be all numbers?

What does your link look like when you upload a Playlist?

I can upload a song no problem like I used to though.

Thank you!

I figured it out!! Thank you!!!!!!!!!

-I hovered over "share" 

-Then clicked copy playlist link

-pasted my link and it looked like this

https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1AyMsreCMjyoeBKKRRlIiy?si=fsDQ5tM1R-enW2dgShA_9w

BUT, I had to add my user ID inbetween ".com" and playlist so it looked like this:

spotify.com/user/peppaface2/playlist/1AyMsreCMjyoeBKKRRlIiy?si=fsDQ5tM1R-enW2dgShA_9w

Weird... I didn't have to do that extra step before.  I used to just copy and paste the playlist link when I copied it.  Thank you!
