Describe the issue

Hello,
I have a question about how I can fully use Tidal through Roon. I don't have any major problems searching for songs or albums, but I can't find specific playlists offered on Tidal. As an example, I can use the "Odsluch listaa" playlist, which I can find directly in Tidal but can't access using Roon. I'd appreciate any advice on how to find the "Odsluch listaa" playlist in Roon.

Best regards
Tomasz Komosinski

Hello @tomasz.komosinski2 ,

Are you able to save the playlist in the TIDAL app? After you save it, does it show up in Roon properly?

Thanks for the tip. Yes, that partially solved the problem, because when I use TIDAL, if I add it to my favorites there, it’s available in my Roon playlists. However, I’d like to know how I could find this playlist and others like it through Roon itself, without having to use TIDAL.

Hello @tomasz.komosinski2

Thank you for the update. The search across users’ playlists is not currently a feature of Roon.

Since this is not a current feature of Roon, I would recommend also posting your suggestion in the Feature Suggestions section of the site.

Our product team and developers keep a close eye on that category, so that’s definitely the best place to propose a change like this and get feedback from the Community.

Hi @tomasz.komosinski2,

To add a layer of technical context here:

Tidal doesn’t expose all of its editorial or algorithmic playlists through the Tidal public API, which Roon uses to sync Tidal content. These playlists don’t surface in Roon unless you add them to your Tidal favorites.

So, as a workaround, you can mark a playlist as a Favorite in the TIDAL app. The playlist will appear in Roon after the next regular sync or within about 24 hours.

Actually searching Tidal-branded playlists within the Roon app would be contingent on Tidal exposing this content through their API - as @vadim mentioned, it’s a feature request for now.
