Summary

In a continuation of a series focusing on conditional workflows in Postman, this post details the creation of an on-demand Spotify playlist using Postman Collections and the Spotify API. The author describes a process of selecting a favorite artist, using the Spotify API to gather metadata, and expanding the playlist with randomly chosen popular songs and related artists. Readers are guided through setting up their Spotify Developer account, configuring their environment in Postman, and executing the workflow to generate a playlist. The workflow involves obtaining a refresh token through the Authorization Code Flow, configuring environment variables, and using Postman's Collection Runner to automate the playlist creation. The process allows for dynamic playlist expansion by persisting variables, and the workflow can also be executed in Newman. The series is set to conclude with instructions on scheduling the collection for regular updates, mimicking Spotify's Discover Weekly feature.
