Hi - big fan of Exportify! Recently my exports stopped including Spotify ID and Artist ID as the first two fields .. are there new issues with those fields? They're really important! Thanks |

Oh, no there's nothing wrong with those fields. I just removed them when I added Record Labels, because they seemed extraneous to me, since they mean basically nothing to a human reader. What do you use them for? If you convince me, I'll add them back; it would take only a few minutes. I was just aiming for simplicity. |

I concatenate the trackID with the string "spotify:track:" to make a spotify URI for each track, which enables me to link quickly to a playable track. Also I can copy and paste a group URIs right into spotify making easy playlists -- which is critical for my use case of using exportify data to make new 'summary' playlists. For example, i download the data for 30 tastemaker playlists and make a new playlist of the songs with the lowest popularity score that have been added to the most tastemaker playlists. Without the track ID that's just a useless list of names, but the track ID enables to make a playlist of these songs in seconds. So I can't really use Exportify without that field. Track ID is way more important than Artist ID. Adding record labels is AWESOME, though. Was my most-desired field (before trackID went away :) |

Word. I could also just give you the URI, but the ID is smaller https://developer.spotify.com/documentation/web-api/concepts/spotify-uris-ids. I'll put song ID back in the output. It's just there were song, artist, and album IDs floating around, and that many IDs was starting to look a little ridiculous to me. |

Yeah that makes total sense. Really appreciate you putting songID back, definitely don't need the other ones though. Thanks for all you do! |

I goofed! I also needed to make this change so the leftover ID is for track, not the album! 8f37f60 It works now. |
