Usage

create_playlist(
  user_id,

)

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

Returns a list containing playlist information.
