Spotify 2 AppleMusic

Spotify to Apple Music

Based on the work of @simonschellaert

Some simple Python 3 scripts to help you into importing your existing Spotify playlists into Apple Music.

Usage

1. Export the Spotify songs to a CSV File

The first step is getting the songs you want to import into Apple Music into a CSV file. The simplest way to do this is using Exportify.
If you want to export you whole Spotify library, simply create a new playlist called All and drag your whole library into it using the Spotify desktop app. You can then export the playlist All using Exportify. Save the resulting file as spotify.csv in the same directory as the directory you cloned this repo into.

2. Match the Spotify songs with their Apple Music identifier

In order to add songs to our Apple Music playlist, we need their Apple Music identifier. Running python3 retrieve-identifiers.py will use the spotify.csv file to create a new file itunes.csv with each line consisting of the Apple Music identifier of a song in your Spotify playlist. And now, all songs that haven't match any Apple Music identifiers are added to a noresult.txt file.

3. Open Apple Music in Firefox

• To add our songs to the playlist we want, you'll need to open Apple Music into Firefox (I use Firefox but you can try to do the same on other browser. But it works for me using Firefox. You'll maybe have to adapt the following steps).
• When you're logged in open the Dev Tools (Ctrl + Shift + I or F12 on Windows and Linux or Cmd + Opt + I on macOS).
• Then, go the Network tab and add a random song to the playlist where you want your Spotify songs. (Using the Apple Music web interface).
• Look for a POST request to a url like this: https://amp-api.music.apple.com/v1/me/library/playlists/p.ID/tracks (p.ID stands; of course, for the unique playlist ID. So, don't search for the exact same url! You won't find it.)
• When you find it, click on it and go to the Headers tab.
• Then, hit the Resend button. It should be on the top right of the Headers tab.
• Here come the tricky part... Hold on, you can do it. Open a terminal and run python3. Then, quickly import pyautogui. (Make sure you have it installed before)
• Back in our browser, in the Resend request tab, you should see the payload of the request. Remove the song id (your payload should look like this: {"data":[{"id":"","type":"songs"}]} Please check because this step is important), and put your cursor right beetwen the 2 dobule quotes.
• In the terminal, run pyautogui.position(). It should return a tuple with two numbers. Replace the numbers in the line 14 and in the line 17 with the numbers you got from the terminal.
• Then, in your borwser, put your cursor above the send button, and run the same command in the terminal. Replace the numbers in the line 19 with the numbers you got from the terminal.

Now you should be ready to go. When the script run, just select your browser window and wait for the magic to happen.

Limitations

Missing songs

The script I'm using to retrieve the Apple Music identifier for a Spotify song is quite basic. It simply compares the title and artist to find out if a Spotify and Apple Music song match. Some songs don't have the exact same title (extraneous spacing for example) in both services. This results in the script failing to retrieve an identifier for some songs. Hopefully, you'll be able to add the missing songs manually thanks to the noresult.txt file.
