New Spotify Integration Error INVALID_CLIENT: Invalid redirect URI

Configuration
42

PM67 has it.

  1. Make sure your https://my.home-assistant.io/ link points to the right instance
  2. Point your My Dashboard | Spotify for Developers link to Link to OAuth2 Authorize Callback – My Home Assistant

This should then work!

Hi there.

I have followed the instructions you posted and i get an error INVALID_CLIENT: Invalid client

My developer app is pointed to https://my.home-assistant.io/redirect/oauth

And when i try to add the integration i get redirect_uri=https://my.home-assistant.io/redirect/oauth in the address bar.

I cant see whats wrong. Ive followed multiple guides and it refuses to work.

After following the updated official documentation I ran into this error, the URI that I had to enter was quite a bit different from the URI people have been mentioning in this thread:
Link to OAuth2 Authorize Callback – My Home Assistant
I am using duckdns on my HomeAssistant instance, but thought this was a pretty strange URI.
Thanks for this super helpful guide!

Does anyone had following problem?

I managed to change the Redirect URI in developer dashboard to:

http://xxxxxxxxxx.duckdns.org:8123/api/hassio_ingress/bRQ_xzWQWxYmodwL0VyyMxFPv8fRuAcWUkTk-3OH4wk/spotify-credentials/auth/callback

In node-red click Start Authentication, then Spotify asked for my permission, i agreed, and then 401: Unauthorized error occured.

Can anyone help?

After my first try with RedirectionURL set to Link to OAuth2 Authorize Callback – My Home Assistant
Spotify integration did not appeared in the list of integrations.
After changing the RedirectionURIs in Spotify Developer when I try to Add Spotify Integration in HA again, the authorizationURL still uses the first RedirectionURL and fails to create integration (again).
It ignores any changes I make to RedirectionURL in Spotify Developer.
Even removing the Spotify Credential in HA and re-creating them doesn’t help.
Does anyone know where in HA should I delete the old URL to persuade HA to apply current/changed RedirectionURL from Spotify Developer?

I’ve got exactly same issue. Seems like link is not refreshing.
when I add the Spotify HA integration the URL shown it’s not even including my correct client_id and there is no way to make it working.
I tried to force-paste the correct client_id into the url and then it’s opening a new web page where I’m asked to “Link account to Home Assistant?” but when I link it I’m sent back to HA integration page with an “Error” window popped up.
I think I need to force-past my client_secret as well but I can’t figure out where in the URL it should stay.

49

I fixed my issue. Hope what below can help someone with same condition:
Basically I discovered HA kept stored credentials from a previous Spotify setup.
This was also the reason the URL generated was not matching with my client’s details.
Removing them worked and now I can add properly my Spotify integration.

To do that you should go to http://homeassistant.local:8123/config/application_credentials
and check if any Spotify credential is already stored. Then simply remove it.
After this, the process should work well

Thank you, seems that I also managed to link my spotify account to the integration.

You saved me from doom! 60+ minutes wasted. The documentation really should be updated.

52

Thanks for sharing this solution @andriy7811 ! I was stuck on this for a while.
I’ve now submitted a pull request on the HA Spotify documentation to make it clear past Spotify credentials may need to be removed and how.

53

fixed :slight_smile:

Too bad the music assistant also does not work, for this moment until a new version is out

Hey PM67,
Sorry to bother u but im not very computer savvy but i having the same issues with my login to Spotify on HA. I just installed HA a few days ago after seeing a few you tubes and buying the Odroid M2+. It works like a dream but when i tied to add and integrate spotify via the HA it came back with the to the “INVALID_CLIENT: Invalid client”. I dont know where to find the Spotify developers option to make the changes listed. Any thoughts or baby steps to get it done. Maybe a you tube, i couldnt find anything
Cheers Jonathan (Thailand)

jeez this is complicated. The guide is misleading. It says Please copy and paste the exact URL above. You **do not** have to change it.. Well, I copied it as such, and I get INVALID_CLIENT: Invalid redirect URI. Now that I retry this, removing the failed oauth in between each time from :8123/config/application_credentials, it still always uses the redirect url of the guide. Somehow it’s stuck in system, event though I went to spotify page and edited the real dns name along with the port there.

Where do I need to remove the https://my.home-assistant.io/redirect/oauth url? I tried even private browser in FF, and it still remembers the original url from guide.

57

I figured. The problem is https://my.home-assistant.io link takes me to another HA instance than my home. I found there is edit button for the real HA url on the given page. I changed it to my home instance url with the port. But still I get the same invalid redirect url.

I removed the app from spotify.com, and recreated with slightly different name. This time I put my real url https://host.domain:port/redirect/oauth there, not the example domain. Still it uses the example url: redirect_uri=https://my.home-assistant.io
