My Question or Issue

It would be great to be able to create and update playlists with songs that also have the added by column updated with a userID.

Again, it would be great to add the feature of being able to add the added by feature onto the api of the create/post/update playlist?

Do you mean Collaborative playlists?

Yes, do you work for Spotify?

I've tested some things, and this is what I found out:
If you use the Get Playlist or the Get Playlist Tracks endpoint, the tracks of a collaborative playlist have the ID of the user who have added a track. 

tracks(items(added_by))


I can add items to collaborative playlists I have created myself.
But, I cannot add to collaborative playlists I am part of that I did not create.
And obviously, I cannot add to collaborative playlists I am not part of.
