const pd = new PipedreamClient({
projectId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_PROJECT_ID!,
clientId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_ID!,
clientSecret: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_SECRET!,
projectEnvironment: "production",
})
const result = await pd.actions.run({
id: "spotify-create-playlist",
externalUserId: "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
configuredProps: {
spotify: { authProvisionId: "apn_xxxxxxx" },
name: "Name",
description: "Description",
},
})

Inputs
Pipedream supplies the connected account. Your application provides the operation-specific values below. Dynamic inputs are resolved against that user's account.
| Property | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
name Name | string | 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. Required |
description Description | string | Value for playlist description as displayed in Spotify Clients and in the Web API. Optional |
isPublic Public | boolean | Defaults to true. If true the playlist will be public, if false it will be private. Optional |
isCollaborative Collaborative | boolean | Defaults to false. If true the playlist will be collaborative. Note that to create a collaborative playlist you must also set public to false. Optional |
