Enable play-back of the "Liked Songs"-playlist through the web-api

Enable play-back of the "Liked Songs"-playlist through the web-api

I want to be able to automatically start the playback of my "Liked Songs"-playlist. Getting a context_uri for that playlist would be straight-forward and great.

Hey @Hendrikvp, help's here!

 

Thanks for coming to the community for help. Liked Songs isn't treated as a playlist. What you can do, as a workaround in this case, is call the Get User's Saved Tracks endpoint (the limit for this is maximum 50 tracks per page) and use the Start/Resume a User's Playback endpoint to play those tracks. 

 

If this is something you'd like to see, I recommend creating a new idea on the Spotify Community. That way, Spotify can keep track of it. 

 

Let me know if you have any questions!

 

Have a good one,

context URI for liked songs is formatted like this:

 

spotify:user:<username>:collection

 

 so you can easily generate it by yourself

Thank you so much. God bless you ❤️
