• Log into the Spotify Redirect and copy the redirect URL from the browser navigation bar back into your terminal prompt (i.e. http://localhost/?code=YOUR_SPOTIFY_ACCESS_TOKEN)

Import by Genre into Playlists

• If you'd like to utilize the import by Genre Feature, organize all Genres from your CSV into a yaml file with the following format:

Playlist Name 1:
  - Rock
  - Alternative
  - Punk Rock
  - Acoustic
  - Classic Rock
Playlist Name 2:
  - Club
  - Trap
  - Electronic
  - Dance
  - House
  - Trance
  - Techno

• Once you have the genre yaml file, run the following command in your Terminal:

python spotify_import.py SPOTIFY_USERNAME test_file.csv -g example_genre_file.yml

• Your songs will then be organized in two seperate playlists based on the organization of genres in the Genre Yaml file.
