Fix: Spotify + Discord Integration | Songs not showing & more

what's up guys my name is techn over here for troubleshoot and welcome back to another video sir today's video is on fixing the discord integration where Spotify recently I added my Spotify account to my discord account however whenever I'm listening to music of course I've managed to fix it now it didn't pop up over here keep an eye on this icon over here as soon as I pause it it'll vanish but assume that currently music is playing this is what it would look like I have my little status emoticon selected over here but of course you can see that no song is playing as it should when something is it should appear somewhat like this so what exactly is the issue well there's a couple of things that we can go ahead and try to try and troubleshoot this integration not working so the number one check if the accounts are actually linked so in the bottom left of discord next to you use the name click the user Settings button and when you're in this window over here head across through the connections tab I need to quickly disable streamer mode connections and you can see what accounts you have linked of here I have my Spotify account but of course if it's not here simply click the Spotify button and your browser should open to a new web page of course mine decides not to load but it'll looks somewhat like this and it'll ask you to link your two accounts once you've linked them you can close and reopen discord heading back to those connections tab under your user settings you should see that your account is over here simply make sure that displays Spotify as your status is set to on of course you can have display on your profile set to on or off what exactly is this well when you click on your profile as such view profile it'll show over here if you have that first option selected however as with me it won't show if you have it turned off then go ahead and see if it's actually working clicking play and Spotify you can see it's working over here however assuming that it didn't work there's a couple more steps that we can go ahead and follow so that the first step over here is to make sure that we actually have game activity set to on this may sound a little bit strange but it's one of the steps that I had to do to get it to work properly so use the settings at once again and we'll head down to the game activity tab then when we're here some people say that you may or may not see Spotify if you do then I'd recommend hitting the X next to it over here to go ahead and close it so the way that I fixed it was by clicking not seeing your game added I click that click the drop-down and then select it Spotify as such add game and as you can see I'm now playing a Spotify and then of course once adding it make sure that display currently running game as the status message is set to on looking back into actual discord you can see playing Spotify spot if I just started playing however of course this isn't the actual integration this is just saying that I have Spotify open on my computer and you can do this with absolutely any program now of course that is not the right way that you are probably expecting however these are the steps that I took that managed to fix it once you've done this head into Spotify try and play something and see if it works if it doesn't work then simply head into the options once again go to game activity and you'll see Spotify suddenly disappears goes down to the list over here and looking back to our actual discord you can see we're now listening to Spotify here's the song and some extra information heading back into user settings followed by a game activity we can go ahead and remove the Spotify over here close out of this and it's not working as expected I think that I had to restart both discord and Spotify after following these steps to get it to work so I'd recommend restarting a discord right before you go ahead and remove it from your game activity list over here so you add it restart this code restart Spotify start playing music see if it works if it does great otherwise go ahead and remove it from here and see if it pops up otherwise restart discord and Spotify once all of that is done and all of those steps are complete you should not have Spotify it linked correctly with your discord account and whatever music you're listening to should show up with all of your friends in all of your servers and of course something else to keep in mind when you go ahead and add your Spotify account for the first time you may already have one linked over here under connections if that's the case you can go ahead and remove it and add it back and of course if you're adding the same account once again or trying to fix this one account you should go ahead and remove all of these linked Spotify accounts before going ahead and linking it again that way things have the best chance of working and of course if you've run through the entire tutorial once then I'd recommend you go ahead remove this add it back and possibly do the tutorial once again after restarting your entire PC and hopefully things will be working then but anyways that's about it thank you for watching my name's been take number here for troubleshoot hopefully this video helped you and I'll see you all in the next one shower
