The only problem was that I had spent a lot of time curating the music I liked on Play Music and there was no obvious way to import those playlists in to Spotify. Luckily I'm not the only one that faced this problem and so after a quick search I found the resources I needed. I used the javascript snippet from the first answer on this Stack Exchange question. The only modification I made was to replace the '-' with '|'. Here's the snippet: var playlist = document.querySelectorAll('.song-table tr.song-row') įor(var i =0 i Tools > JavaScript console) while on the tab that contains the playlist you want to export and paste the snippet in. The script will only print out the songs that are visible in the tab. One of the commenters on the question had a good idea. Maximize the browser window and zoom out as much as possible. It will be very difficult to see the songs, but will save you several script executions. Once you press Enter, the script will run and display a nicely formatted list of songs including artist, title and album. You will need to create a comma-delimited file or list to use in the next step. Copy the output from the console window, open Excel and paste into the first cell. From the Data menu choose Text to Columns and follow the wizard. Once that's complete, you can choose Export from the File menu and then select Change File Type. Great, so now that we have the formatted list how do we get it into Spotify? Once again, one of the commenters on the question comes to the rescue with Ivy Is Here. It's a brilliant web app that makes it very easy to upload a comma-delimited file (or just copy/paste comma-delimited values) which it then matches against Spotify's catalog and creates a Spotify playlist for you. All you have to do is copy the playlist and paste it in to the Spotify desktop app. The site has a short tutorial video which explains all steps in detail so I'm not going to cover it here. I strongly encourage you to donate to the developer if you find it useful. I have no affiliation with that site whatsoever, but it's nice to support useful utilities. The whole process took me approximately 10 minutes.
IVY gets confused if I use it the way it is. It only found 55 songs out of 311 on one of my playlists.

Var playlist = document.querySelectorAll('.song-table tr.song-row') #Google playlist export code#Īfter I modified the code it works a lot better. I just removed any referecing of albums, and changed the | to a comma. Ivy ignores anything else, so it was just getting confused and not finding many song matches.

Zchiew and The Johnny,Let Your Life Be Free Janis Joplin,Summertime (From 'Porgy & Bess') I used Words "Find and Replace" to remove any crap I didn't want.
Thanks for the help! Much happier with Spotify so far. Unfortunately, none of the posted scripts worked for me. It's possible, based on the dates of the posts, they're out of date. I found a user on github who does have a fully functional script, with various output options.Ĭourtesty of jmiserez, go to your songs library in Google Play Music, make sure you're at the top of the page, then press F12 in Chrome.
At the prompt (>), paste the following script, then press enter: In the window that opens, click on "Console".
