Parameters

required

Input

required

The name for the new playlist, for example `"Your Coolest Playlist"`. This name does not need to be unique; a user may have several playlists with the same name.

Defaults to `true`. The playlist's public/private status (if it should be added to the user's profile or not): `true` the playlist will be public, `false` the playlist will be private. To be able to create private playlists, the user must have granted the `playlist-modify-private` [scope](/documentation/web-api/concepts/scopes/#list-of-scopes). For more about public/private status, see [Working with Playlists](/documentation/web-api/concepts/playlists)

Defaults to `false`. If `true` the playlist will be collaborative. _**Note**: to create a collaborative playlist you must also set `public` to `false`. To create collaborative playlists you must have granted `playlist-modify-private` and `playlist-modify-public` [scopes](/documentation/web-api/concepts/scopes/#list-of-scopes)._
