Ensure you have set these variables in your .env file.

    After creating the app, you will be redirected to your app's dashboard:

    • Find the Client ID and Client Secret on this page.

    • Add these values to your .env file as shown below:

      SPOTIFY_CLIENT_ID=your-client-id
SPOTIFY_CLIENT_SECRET=your-client-secret
