Account Info

You'll need to add your Spotify and deezer account information to the account_info.json file. This file will be generated upon the first execution of main.py. Once it's there, gather the information following the steps below and paste it in. To verify the .json file is still formatted correctly, you can use https://jsonlint.com.

You are not giving me your password! These tokens are used to avoid sharing your password. All of this data is stored locally in the account_info.json file, and is sent exclusively to Spotify or deezer. This is safe.

Finding SPOTIFY_USERNAME
  1. Go to https://open.spotify.com/. Sign into your account.
  2. In the top right, click your display name, then Account.
  3. Your Username should be the first field on this page.
Finding SPOTIFY_CLIENT_ID
  1. Go to https://developer.spotify.com/dashboard/login. Sign into your account.
  2. Select CREATE AN APP.
  3. The App name and App description are irrelevant. Click CREATE when you're ready.
  4. In the application's menu, click Edit Settings. Add the URL https://example.com in the Redirect URIs field. Save it.
  5. Your Client ID will be near the top right, under the app name/description.
Finding SPOTIFY_CLIENT_SECRET
  1. In the same app you created above, click SHOW CLIENT SECRET.
  2. Your Client Secret will appear.
