If you like listening to music with Spotify, you probably have spent a lot of time building your music library, years of liking new music, making exclusive playlists, and holding your life’s soundtracks. Therefore, it is definitely great practice to export your Spotify to a file.

In this post, I will show you 4 ways to export a Spotify playlist or your entire library to Excel, Google Sheet, JSON, TXT, or other music services. It just takes a few seconds. Why not make your music collection secure.

Export Spotify Playlist to JSON File

Whether you want to do it on a computer or mobile, you can also use a free online tool Music Backupper to export your Spotify library or playlist to a file. Whenever you need, you can use this tool to restore your music.

When you go to this website, you should know how to do it. You can also refer to the steps below to see how it works.

Step 1. Click on the Export from Spotify button.

Step 2. You can choose to export your entire music library or just a single playlist. For the playlist, you just need to input the Spotify playlist URL and press Enter. For the entire library, you need to log in first.

Step 3. Wait a few seconds for the backup to process. Once finished, you can download the JSON backup file and restore it in a safe location.

If you do not know how to view the JSON file and want to make sure all your tracks are exported, I have made a Google spreadsheet(make a copy to edit) to help you. You just need to copy the JSON file link and paste it to this Starter sheet in A2. After that, you can go to the Spotify Playlist sheet to view all your playlist info there.

Note: If you want to edit the Google spreadsheet, just make a copy of it. Don’t request access please.

Export Spotify Playlist to Google Sheet

I have made Google sheet to export data from Spotify playlist. This Google Sheet is a powerful tool that has been customized with Google Apps Scripts to interact with Spotify Web API and Songlink API. The scripts enable the following functionalities:

  1. Get Playlist Tracks: This script fetches all the tracks from a specified Spotify playlist and displays them in the sheet. You only need to input the playlist URL.
  2. Convert Spotify to YouTube: This script converts Spotify URLs in a specified column to YouTube URLs using the Songlink API.
  3. Create Playlist and Add Videos: This script creates a new YouTube playlist and adds videos to it using the YouTube Data API. You can simply click the Generate YouTube playlist URL to play all videos.

These scripts are designed to make it easier for you to manage your music playlists across different platforms. You can modify or extend as per your needs. If you don’t know how to use it, you may refer to the video above.

Bonus: Export Spotify Playlist to MP3

If you want to enjoy your Spotify playlists offline on any device, you can use Allavsoft to save all your Spotify tracks as MP3 or FLAC. Allavsoft is a multi-source media downloader that allows you to download music and videos from Spotify, Deezer, Tidal, YouTube, Udemy, etc.

You can free download it and get started. When you use it for the first time, it will ask for your Spotify account and password. This is for accessing the Spotify API to correctly get all tracks in your Spotify playlist. The downloaded music quality will be the same whether you have Spotify premium or not.

After that, you can just paste the Spotify URL and the program will do its job. You can also change the settings to convert the downloaded tracks to MP3, M4A, OGG, FLAC, etc.

Conclusion

You may never need the backup file, but It is necessary to back up your Spotify playlist because I lost my Spotify account once. I tried so hard to get my account back but to no valid. Luckily, I have all my library backed up to create a new account and restore my playlists.

  1. Jimothee,
    Have you Pasted the JSON file link to A2 in the Starter sheet? You also need to know the JSON file link is only available for a limited time.

  2. I made the JSON file with musicbackerupper but the spreadsheet reports errors.

    Any idea why?

    Exception: Request failed for https://www.musicbackuper.com returned code 404. Truncated server response: 404 Not Found 404 Not Found nginx/1.18.0 (Ubuntu) </b… (use muteHttpExceptions option to examine full response) (line 127).
