Adding Spotify to Your Wall

While Walls.io does currently not offer a direct integration with Spotify, it is easy to use our Zapier integration to push tracks from a Spotify playlist to your wall! This step-by-step guide explains how you can achieve this!

You can display tracks from a Spotify playlist on your Walls.io wall by connecting Spotify and Walls.io through Zapier. This is a useful setup if you want to highlight playlist updates automatically on an wall without creating each post manually. In this guide, we’ll show you how to enable your Walls.io API token, connect Spotify in Zapier, map the track details, and publish the automation.

To get started, sign up with Zapier (https://zapier.com/) if you haven't already. Zapier is a marketing tool that allows you to connect hundreds of apps without coding skills. Zapier is offering free plans, so you can get started right away!

In Walls.io, go to Setup > API and activate the access token:

In Zapier, start to create your "Zap" by clicking "Make a Zap" (a Zap is kind of a "recipe" that will connect two apps, in our case Spotify + Walls.io). Enter a name for your Zap, f.e. "Spotify to Walls.io".

This trigger will be fired every time a new track is added to a playlist. Another option would be choosing the "New Saved Track" trigger, which fires every time you save a track to your Spotify library.

If this is your first Zap using Spotify, you'll have to "Sign in to Spotify" to give Zapier permission to access your Spotify account:

Next, choose a Spotify playlist that you want to connect with your wall:

Clicking "Test Trigger" will bring in the most recent track on the playlist:

In the action step, search for Walls.io and select it as the app that should receive the Spotify track data. This tells Zapier that every new Spotify trigger should create a new post on your Walls.io wall.

If this is your first Zap using Walls.io, you'll have to "Sign in to Walls.io" and copy/paste the API token obtained in step 2:

Finally, you need to map the Spotify fields to Walls.io. We recommend getting started with these fields:

After publishing your Zap, all tracks added to the Spotify playlist will be automatically sent to your Wall! 🚀

In this example, we've used the trigger "New Track Added to Playlist" to display all tracks on your wall. The Spotify app on Zapier offers many different triggers, like "New Playlist", "New Podcast Episode", "New Played Track" and more. You can find a full list here!
