      @Sean OK so to be 100% sure everything is set properly I start installing the module from scratch again generating once more the JSON file and the token.

        @Sean working now!

        For some reason previous installation generated a token without .JSON at the end (I know because I made a backup on the Desktop) while this time it was generated properly!

        Thanks for your support anyway. :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

          @Sean Is it intentional that the z-index of the artwork (or the Spotify logo) is equal to or higher than whatever the Alert module shows? Alerts do not cover the Spotify module’s content.

            @mmmmh not intentional. i rarely use alert module, so i didnt know about it. if you can make PR to fix it, feel free to contribute.

              Hi all! i ve set a config as

              SPOTIFY_MA_PLAYLIST: {
                          notificationExec: {
                              notification: "SPOTIFY_PLAY",
                              payload: (params) => {
                                  console.log("SPOTIFY_MA_PLAYLIST")
                                  return {
                                      context_uri: "spotify:playlist:1EaTnmluBfauzzcOdjebNG", // Uri of a personnal playlist or album
                                  }
                              },
                              notification: "SPOTIFY_SHUFFLE", // added this to toogle shuffle
                              notification: "SPOTIFY_NEXT" // added this to not always have the same song starting first 
                          }
                      },
              

              and activate it with

              SPOTIFY_MA_PLAYLIST: {
                          pattern: "play my playlist on spotify", // (.*)  is an action  eg: play my playlist / run my playlist etc... 
                          command: "SPOTIFY_MA_PLAYLIST"
                      },

                It seems MMM-AssistantMk2’s commands.
                You made some mistakes.

                This is somewhat similar what you want.

                "SPOTIFY_MA_PLAYLIST": {
                  notificationExec: {
                    notification: "SPOTIFY_PLAY",
                    payload: "spotify:playlist:1EaTnmluBfauzzcOdjebNG"
                  }
                }
                

                notificationExec cannot emit multiple notifications. It will emit just one - In your case, the last “SPOTIFY_NEXT” would be emitted. that’s why your issue happened.

                If you want to emit several notifications, use MMM-NotificationTrigger to relay and chain notifications. Or you can use moduleExec to make some logics. (Anyway that is not the point).

                And SPOTIFY_SHUFFLE is just toggle flag for current status, so it will not guarantee to be a shuffle mode.

                  ok!! thats a start! can you please help me with that! i mean how this should have a proper syntax! i would really appreciate.

                  Also another problem that i have is that if spotify is not already playing in the background i am not able to play anything. whatever command i give. and the frontend does not even show the spotify logo. it just disappears on after one sec on start.

                    In that case, maybe, the module cannot find available active devices. It doesn’t mean you have no device. But by default, Spotify doesn’t know which device is yours unless it is powered and logged as your account.
                    So at least one of your devices need to be activated when this SDK is used. I recommend to install Raspotify, that could makes your spotify always on.

                        First of all thanks for the module and the effort you put in it.

                        • Device Limitation : Now you can allow or limit devices to display its playing on MM.

                        One question regarding the device limitation: if I leave it empty, the module shows the cover etc. as it should. If I try to limit it to my echo dot with

                         allowDevices: ["myechodot"],
                        

                        the spotify logo appears if I start playback on the echo dot, but no cover etc. is shown. Any hints?
