How can I play songs on spotify through my app?

Discuss
#1

Hi, I want to run playlists and songs from spotify in my application but without actually opening spotify (just play the song in the background, like in Waze).
I realized it could be done with the API but I didn’t quite understand how (here is a link to connect with the API: Web API | Spotify for Developers)
How can I do this?

have you tried as they said?

with Web component , set web address to ( for example: http://open.spotify.com/track/6rqhFgbbKwnb9MLmUQDhG6)

and call web get, then as they used id get response = 200 then get content

try it and then post which error or problem you are facing

A very good way to learn App Inventor or Kodular is to read the free Inventor’s Manual here in the AI2 free online eBook App Inventor 2 Book: Create Your Own Android Apps … the links are at the bottom of the Web page. The book ‘teaches’ users how to program with AI2 blocks.
There is a free programming course here Course In A Box and the aia files for the projects in the book are here: App Inventor 2 Book: Create Your Own Android Apps
How to do a lot of basic things with App Inventor are described here: How do you...? .

Also do the tutorials Tutorials for MIT App Inventor to learn the basics of App Inventor, then try something and follow the Top 5 Tips: How to learn App Inventor
