I would like to have the ability to play a Spotify playlist on a Spotify Connect enabled device (using Alexa Routine).

I believe that this API call should be part of this skill:
https://developer.spotify.com/documentation/web-api/reference/player/start-a-users-playback/

The command should look like this:
"Alexa, ask Connect Control to play {PLAYLIST|ALBUM|ARTIST} {PLAYLIST|ALBUM|ARTIST NAME} on {DEVICE}"

Hi,

As I haven't had much time to work on this, I am not sure if I'll be able to implement it unfortunately, but would be happy to accept any pull requests that add this functionality

I've had a quick look, maybe the queue functionality could work?

For example:

  • queue {the song|} {-|TRACKNAME}
  • add {the song|} {-|TRACKNAME} to {my|the} queue

Otherwise (since I originally intended to keep it quite simple), I would usually use Spotify directly on Alexa to start, and then just transfer, etc, if that works?
