Why can't my Alexa action find from Spotify generated personal Chill or Happy Mix Playlist?

Why can't my Alexa action find from Spotify generated personal Chill or Happy Mix Playlist?

My Question or Issue

 

 

I've specifically added the action :

"Play MYNAME's Happy Mix Playlist on Spotify"

"Play my Happy Mix Playlist on Spotify"

 

But nothing seems to find it. Alexa keeps saying it can't find this playlist.

 

On the other hand it does work with some personally generated Spotify lists like

"Play My Daily Drive on Spotify"

"Play My Mix Tapes"

 

Any trick to actually find it? 

 

Thanks

Hey @Dince91,

 

Thanks for reaching out to us and welcome to the Community!
 

Just to confirm, are you able to play any other of your personal playlists with Alexa commands? If not sure, it'd be awesome that you could check.

 

On another note, we recommend making sure that Spotify is selected as the default music service on your Alexa device (this can be done within the Alexa app).

 

Lastly, we'd like you to know Alexa might not recognize newly created playlists. If the playlist was recently created, it can take some time for Alexa to be able to find it.

 

We'll keep an eye on your response!
