Spotify Discover Weekly Archive

This n8n workflow automates the archiving of your Spotify Discover Weekly tracks into a manually created playlist, running every Monday at 8:30 AM via a CRON schedule trigger. It intelligently identifies the Discover Weekly playlist, retrieves its latest tracks, cross-checks against your archive playlist using Switch, IF, and Merge nodes to eliminate duplicates, and adds only new tracks. Credits go to community contributors for refinements in handling Switch outputs.

The benefits are significant for music lovers: it preserves personalized Spotify recommendations that reset weekly, builds a growing library of discoveries without manual intervention, and ensures a clean, duplicate-free archive. This saves hours of tedious copying and prevents losing tracks to Spotify's weekly refresh.

Ideal use cases include avid listeners wanting to curate playlists from AI-driven suggestions, DJs collecting fresh tracks, or anyone building a personal music history. Setup is straightforward—create an archive playlist in Spotify, configure credentials in the Spotify nodes, optionally update playlist IDs if needed, and activate the workflow.

Leveraging n8n's core nodes like Schedule Trigger, Spotify, Switch, Merge, and IF, this medium-complexity automation delivers reliable, hands-off operation with minimal maintenance.
