      Quick guide for setting up Spotify with Loupedeck

      Requirement for use: You need to have an active Spotify Premium - account.

      Linking Spotify Premium Account (to Loupedeck system)

      In order to get Spotify actions working by using Loupedeck you need to link your Spotify Premium account with Loupedeck software - this enables Loupedeck to send commands directly to Spotify’s cloud API system, which directs all commands to the active Spotify playback device (e.g., your computer, amplifier, TV..).

      1. Sign into your Loupedeck Account

      • Open Loupedeck Software
      • Click the account avatar (top right corner)
      • Click "Sign in to Loupedeck" - this will open a web page for login process
      • Type in your Loupedeck login credentials (email & password)
      • Press “Sign in”

      After login: avatar icon changes to your initial letters (e.g. Firstname Lastname -> FL).

      2. Select the profile you want to have Spotify controls

      • Open Profile drop-down menu
      • Select the profile you wish to add Spotify controls to

      Enabling Spotify Premium to your profile(s)

      • Click on Spotify tab (1)
      • Sign in to your Spotify Premium Account (2)

      Note! If Spotify tab (1) is not visible, open Plugin Manager (3) to change Spotify plugin's visibility.

      After clicking "Sign in to Spotify" a web-page opens to authorize Spotify for Loupedeck system and asks for login credentials (or signs in automatically if user has used web-based Spotify before).


       

      All done! Now you can start using the Spotify actions on your Loupedeck device. Loupedeck system allows you to link Spotify controls into any plugin you might want to use.
