iPhone 16 Pro Action Button Shortcut Spotify Song

As of yesterday (03/01/25), I upgraded my old phone of 5 years to an iPhone 16 pro. One of the cool features that comes with this generation of phones is the Action Button to replace the toggle ringer. For a funny idea (or I guess any practical use for this specific use case) I wanted to be able to hold down the Action Button and play One Last Breath by Creed from my playlist on Spotify. The process is just two commands via Shortcut: copy paste the URL of the song from my playlist, then use the 'Open URL' command, and done. This is 99% what I was looking for, however, my one roadblock is that I'm trying to figure out how to keep the playlist shuffled when the song is triggered via the Action Button. Every time it will default to unshuffled and I was thinking it has something to do with the URL, but I'm just not sure. Any suggestions for quick fixes would be great!
