Getting alexa to play a playlist

spower — Sun, 17 Nov 2024 17:18:25 GMT

How can I get Alexa to play a playlist?? This is driving me crazy! Any name I give it Alexa finds an artist or song to play. What can I call my playlist to get Alexa to play it??

Thanks!!

Hi @spower

Welcome to community!

Can you let me know the name of the playlist you're having trouble with and the exact voice command that you're using?

Playlist name is List 1(I also have list 2 list 3 and list 4), but saying "play list 1 or play playlist list 1 doesn't work! I don't know what to say to get it to play.

Hi @spower

Does Alexa acknowledge the command, but nothing happens, or does it try to play something else?

Could you try renaming your playlist to something like "Happy" or similar, then use the voice command, "Alexa, play 'Happy' playlist on Pandora".

Let me know how it goes.
