create_playlist: Create Playlist for User

In spotifyr: R Wrapper for the 'Spotify' Web API

Create Playlist for User

Description

Create a playlist for a Spotify user. The playlist will be empty until you add tracks.

Usage

create_playlist(
  user_id,
  name,
  public = TRUE,
  collaborative = FALSE,
  description = NULL,
  authorization = get_spotify_authorization_code()
)

Arguments

user_id	Required. The user's Spotify user ID.
name	Required. String containing the name for the new playlist, for example "Your Coolest Playlist". This name does not need to be unique; a user may have several playlists with the same name.
public	Optional. Boolean. Defaults to TRUE. If TRUE the playlist will be public. If FALSE it will be private. To be able to create private playlists, the user must have granted the playlist-modify-private scope
collaborative	Optional. Boolean. Defaults to FALSE. If TRUE the playlist will be collaborative. Note that to create a collaborative playlist you must also set public to FALES. To create collaborative playlists you must have granted playlist-modify-private and playlist-modify-public scopes.
description	Optional. String containing the playlist description as displayed in Spotify Clients and in the Web API.
authorization	Required. A valid access token from the Spotify Accounts service. See the Web API authorization Guide for more details. Defaults to spotifyr::get_spotify_authorization_code(). The access token must have been issued on behalf of the current user. Creating a public playlist for a user requires authorization of the playlist-modify-public scope; creating a private playlist requires the playlist-modify-private scope. See Using Scopes.

Value

The response from the Spotify Web API on the POST request, with a meaningful error message if the operation was not successful.
