This workflow allows seamless control of Spotify playback using an IKEA remote switch integrated with MQTT, combined with device management and advanced playback features. The main goal is to enable easy volume control, track navigation, playback toggling, and playlist selection through MQTT triggers, making it ideal for smart home entertainment systems.
The workflow begins by listening for MQTT messages from an IKEA 5-button switch, routing actions based on each button press or hold. It includes nodes to handle volume adjustments by 5% increments, playback control (play/pause), and device selection.
Key stages include retrieving available Spotify devices, filtering for a specific target device by name, and activating that device for playback. The workflow intelligently checks if the target device is already playing music and pauses or resumes as needed. It also retrieves user playlists, filters for a favorite playlist, and starts playing it, offering personalized music experience.
This setup can be used in home automation to control music playback effortlessly, where physical remote buttons translate into smart commands for Spotify, improving user experience during relaxation, parties, or daily routines.
