Connect your Spotify account
Import playlists directly from Spotify. Each track is matched and downloaded from YouTube automatically.
Before connecting, add this Redirect URI to your
Spotify Developer Dashboard
β your app β Edit Settings β Redirect URIs:
Spotify not configured
Add SPOTIFY_CLIENT_ID and SPOTIFY_CLIENT_SECRET
to your .env.mac file, then rebuild.
Get credentials at developer.spotify.com.
Last.fm
The API key fills in genres when Spotify has none (set LASTFM_APIKEY in .env).
Connect stores a session (needs LASTFM_SECRET + callback URL) for future features like scrobbling.
Genre fallback uses Last.fm tag heuristics in Music Searcher (not a separate beets pipeline). Empty or nonsense embedded genres are stripped so Spotify/Last.fm can fill them.
API key is not set. Add LASTFM_APIKEY to your environment and restart.
Connect your YouTube account
Import playlists directly from YouTube and map tracks to Spotify metadata before queueing downloads.
Before connecting, add this Redirect URI to your Google OAuth client:
YouTube OAuth not configured
Add YOUTUBE_CLIENT_ID and YOUTUBE_CLIENT_SECRET
to your .env.mac file, then rebuild.
