# Spotify and RecordFlower: a code on the label that plays the record

RecordFlower prints record labels on A4 sheets in the Avery L7165 layout, eight to a sheet, with price, condition, your logo and a Scan to listen QR code. Connect your own Spotify app and the code opens the record on Spotify. A record Spotify cannot match gets a code to its page in your webshop instead, so every label scans.

## What Spotify syncs with the Hub

| What | Synced | How |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Listening link | Yes | The Hub looks each release up on Spotify once, as an album for an LP and as a track otherwise, and keeps the link only when artist and title match. |
| Printed labels | Yes | The QR code on the label opens the Spotify link. Printing never waits for Spotify: a release without a link yet gets the code to your shop page. |
| New records | Yes | Every night the Hub looks up the releases that have no Spotify link yet. |
| Stock and price | No | Spotify is not a sales channel. Price and stock stay in the Hub and on your sales channels. |
| Your Spotify account | No | The Hub uses your app credentials only to search the Spotify catalogue. It reads nothing from your Spotify account. |

## How Spotify works with RecordFlower

1. Create an app in the Spotify developer dashboard and copy its client ID and client secret.
2. Enter both under Settings, Integrations, Spotify and test the connection. The secret is stored encrypted and never shown again.
3. In the label settings, choose the Avery L7165 sheet and set the QR code to Spotify.
4. Print labels from the Hub, for one record or a whole selection. A release without a Spotify link gets a code to its page in your webshop.

## What it does not do

- It does not sell on Spotify or sync stock. The connection only adds a listening link to your labels.
- It does not guess. When artist and title do not match a Spotify result, the label points to your shop page.
- It does not come with a Spotify app of ours. You connect your own app from the Spotify developer dashboard.

## Questions about Spotify and RecordFlower

### What does the QR code on the label do?

A buyer scans it with a phone camera and the record opens on Spotify, so they can listen before they buy. Without a Spotify match the code opens the record's page in your webshop.

### What do I need from Spotify?

An app in the Spotify developer dashboard, which gives you a client ID and a client secret. RecordFlower uses them to search the Spotify catalogue and for nothing else.

### Which label sheets can I print on?

The Scan to listen code comes on A4 sheets in the Avery L7165 layout, eight labels per sheet. On a half-used sheet you choose where printing starts, and the Hub remembers which copies already have a label.

### Can the code point to Apple Music instead?

Yes. In the label settings you choose Spotify, Apple Music or your own shop page. A record without a match on the chosen service gets the code to its shop page.

### Which plan includes Spotify labels?

Label templates with the Scan to listen code are switched on per shop. Ask us and we turn them on for yours.
