Import releases from Spotify

Tiske_Tisja · July 2, 2025, 12:45pm

Hi all

I want to import a Spotify release to MB and I have downloaded the script: Import Spotify releases to MusicBrainz

I cant find a button anywhere on Spotify. How does this script work?

It’s working for me under Chrome with Tampermonkey. So…

What userscript manager and browser are you using?
Did you reload the Spotify tab after installing the script?
Did you check the script is running/activated from the userscript manager’s menu?

If it still doesn’t work open your browser’s console and look for errors referring to the script (Press F12 or CTRL+Shift+i).

Personally I recommend using a script that links to Harmony instead. Here’s one I use (because I made it)

This script: Import Spotify releases to MusicBrainz Import album data from Spotify to add a new release on MusicBrainz, via a-tisket or Harmony.

Firefox 140.0.2 (64-bits)

The rest of your answer I dont understand whahaha

how do install this one?

RustyNova · July 2, 2025, 1:58pm

Click the “raw” button

Tiske_Tisja · July 2, 2025, 2:08pm

I think that is one I installed cos it says re-install. But then nothing, don’t see any button

The buttons only appear on release pages

Tiske_Tisja · July 2, 2025, 2:15pm

oke, and how do I find the release page?

chaban · July 2, 2025, 2:18pm

Form the discography view or on track pages by following the link to the album:

….and here I am in 2026 not able to find this button either. I followed all of the steps mentioned above, no button. I’m assuming this is the script you guys were talking about?

Strange, did I not announce my fork of @RustyNova’s Spotify import helper script? (I did but sneakily)

GitHub

Greasy Fork

Thanks, I have updated the userscript list.

I don’t have time to test and compare forks of forks of userscripts, or to check who got permission to do what, so please nobody be mad at me for just going ahead and updating to the newest one
