hmm. that worked. why doesn’t it come up in the normal search? oh well, now to test it out. Thanks for the tip
I have the same problem. It happens when I call a script and also when I launch it from the developer tab.
Does someone have any idea what to do to fix it?

Can you post what you send in to spotcast with the developer tools service call?
Also note this component requires a premium account
I have 2 spotify premium accounts setup as shown in the github repo.
Of course;
device_name: HOME-ASSISTANT
uri: 'spotify:track:79R49p9mRZc8maOEVYEKLp'
Don’t know if thats still all I have to enter, but I used that in a script before and that worked
Can you add debug to the spotcast component and send relevant loglines?
Hope I did this right:

Yes, I’ve a premium account
For some reason I’m not able to upload the screen shot, but this is what I sent.
Service: spotcast.start
Entity: media_player.onkyo (a Chromecast audio attacht to my Onkyo receiver)
Service data
1 entity_id: media_player.onkyo
2 uri: spotify:playlist:7tVLJrVZyEexwsnDECaDQo
Hope this helps
Seems ypur credentials are wrong. See readme in the repo on how to obtain new ones
Hi,
Awesome component, works great when I try the service by itself on the Developer tools, however it does throw a fit when I try to script with it.
My script is as follows:
spotify_test2:
alias: "Spotify test2"
sequence:
- service: spotcast.start
data_template:
device_name: >
{% if is_state("input_select.spotify_source","Grupo del Hogar (synced)") %} Grupo del Hogar
{% elif is_state("input_select.spotify_source","Comedor") %} Comedor
{% elif is_state("input_select.spotify_source","Pasillo Principal") %} Pasillo Principal
{% elif is_state("input_select.spotify_source","Recamara Principal Ducha") %} Recamara Principal Ducha
{% elif is_state("input_select.spotify_source","Recamara Principal") %} Recamara Principal
{% elif is_state("input_select.spotify_source","Recamara Principal Buro") %} Recamara Principal Buro
{% elif is_state("input_select.spotify_source","Grupo de Recamara Principal") %} Grupo de Recamara Principal
{% elif is_state("input_select.spotify_source","Recamara de Visitas") %} Recamara de Visitas
{% elif is_state("input_select.spotify_source","Oficina") %} Oficina
{% elif is_state("input_select.spotify_source","Grupo de Limpieza") %} Grupo de Limpieza
{% elif is_state("input_select.spotify_source","Solo Bocinas") %} Solo Bocinas
{% elif is_state("input_select.spotify_source","Solo Bocinas Inteligentes") %} Solo Bocinas Inteligentes
{% endif %}
uri: >
{% if is_state("input_select.spotify_playlist","Sueño Profundo") %}spotify:playlist:37i9dQZF1DX7aAuYd7Jogj
{% elif is_state("input_select.spotify_playlist","Solo Bocinas Inteligentes") %}
{% endif %}
random_song: true
I tested the if statements on the developer tools template section and they respond with the correct data.
If Statement 1 returns: Oficina
If Statement 1 returns: spotify:playlist:37i9dQZF1DX7aAuYd7Jogj
However the component complains that the ‘Spotify’ object has no attribute 'playlist_tracks’

AttributeError: 'Spotify' object has no attribute 'playlist_tracks'
Not sure if I missed something, or I’m doing something wrong. It might be all the identation spaces that are introduced in the mix when using the data_template.
Any and all help would be greatly appreciated. 
I never gpt scripts to work for anything in HA. If someone with knowledge ca help you it would be good seeing as it works outside a scripts.
Also I think this question with answers are posted in this thread a couple of times already
Perhaps I’m mistaken, but your playlist ‘ Solo Bocinas Inteligentes’ is missing the URI link. Basically you’re saying to play a playlist, without providing the link right?
I have a similar setup where I used BobNL’s Radio card and made a Spotify card (where I can select playlist and speakers).
My script works flawlessly: Chromecast Radio with station and player selection

Yeah, I thought about that. But it wasn’t it. I removed that section of the elif and just left a single value (which when executed on the development tools template editor did return a valid spotify URI and it would still fail.
I did remove the random_song: true parameter from my script and now it does play the playlist on the selected speaker as expected, but it will still complain on the homeassistant.log about the AttributeError: ‘Spotify’ object has no attribute ‘playlist’ dunno what is that about, I believe that is inside the spotify component (/usr/src/homeassistant/homeassistant/components/spotify/media_player.py)
I noticed in your script you used random_song: ‘true’ and shuffle: ‘true’ with single quotes, maybe I was missing that.
I’m no HASS scripting expert and have had very limited success with my scripts for other things. I can therefor not help. sorry
Hi,
This is my working script for Spotcast, I hope it will get you started:

Those APIs are only exposed to code like lovelace cards, python scripts or custom components
What is your use case?
Nice!! Def want my HA to look like that. I haven’t fixed a nice UI even after using HA for 1.5 years
Nice! I have that as well (I used Bob_NL’s Radio as an example for the codes), but I combined it with multiple conditional mini media player cards inside a vertical stack-in-card (depending on what speaker is on) and use it as a popup card for Spotify on my Lovelace view 
(Also wrapped all the mini cards inside a swipe card so I can swipe media players in case different sources are on). Pressing the Spotify button (added a button-card inside the vertical stack-in-card between the dropdown menu and mini media player cards) starts the script.

Hey, are you able to share your final config for this, looks awesome and would love to use it myself!
I really like it, do you maybe have the popup card code yaml also? I can’t get the input selectors in a nice popup card style like yours… Thanks a lot @tomerbs!
