Is it possible to scan a Spotify code and have the song start automatically

Solved!

Is it possible to scan a Spotify code and have the song start automatically

I am having a tattoo made of a Spotify code and would like for the app to automatically play the song when the code is scanned. I cannot figure out how to do this. The code takes me to the album the song is on, but then I have to find the song and manually click play. Is there a way to do this that I am not seeing? I'm new to Spotify, so I don't know a lot about how it works yet. Thanks for any help you can provide!

Hey @PapaNuke,

 

Thanks for reaching out.

 

If you create a Spotify Code through https://www.spotifycodes.com/ and enter the URI of the track (e. g. spotify:track:1BxfuPKGuaTgP7aM0Bbdwr), it should link directly to the track, meaning it should start playing directly once scanned.


Hope this helps 🙂
