# Setup

## Spotify Application

1. Go the [Spotify Dashboard](https://developer.spotify.com/dashboard) and click on "<mark style="color:purple;">Create app</mark>"
2. Fill out the "App name", "App description"
3. You'll need a HTTP server with a link on a specific port (You choose it), paste it in the "Redirect URIs" and end it with a "/callback" like: <https://example/callback>
4. Select "Web API" @ the "Which API/SDKs are you planning to use?"
5. Check "I understand and agree with Spotify's Developer Terms of Service and Design Guidelines"

{% hint style="warning" %}
The plugin first will only detect the owner of the App BECAUSE it's in the developer status, to get out follow the instructions below
{% endhint %}

## Getting out from Development status

1. Go to your Application
2. You'll see an App Status at the top, click on the little "i" letter on the right
3. The link will drop you [here](https://developer.spotify.com/documentation/web-api/concepts/quota-modes)
4. You'll see a section "Quota Extension Request for New Potential Partners"
5. Fill out the form, if you are handy you can photoshop pictures since Spotify made their API unfairly strict.
6. The form will take about 1-2 days, if you are accepted your playes will be able to use the plugin freely!
