Connecting Spotify to Discord lets you display the song you\u2019re currently playing on your Discord profile, share music with friends and even listen together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The good news is that learning <strong>how to connect Spotify to Discord<\/strong> only takes a couple of minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In this guide, we\u2019ll explain <strong>how to link Spotify to Discord on desktop and mobile<\/strong>, how to show Spotify as your Discord status, how Listen Along works, and what to do if Spotify isn\u2019t showing on Discord.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Connect Spotify to Discord on Desktop<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The easiest way to connect your accounts is through Discord\u2019s Connections settings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To <strong>connect Spotify to Discord on desktop<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Open the Discord desktop app or Discord in your browser.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Click the <strong>User Settings<\/strong> cog next to your username.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Select <strong>Connections<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Find and select the <strong>Spotify<\/strong> icon.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A Spotify page will open.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Log into the Spotify account you want to connect.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Authorise the connection between Spotify and Discord.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once completed, Discord should confirm that your Spotify account has been connected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can then decide whether you want your Spotify account and listening activity to appear on your Discord profile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Connect Spotify to Discord on Mobile<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can also <strong>link Spotify to Discord using the Discord mobile app<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Open Discord and:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Tap your <strong>profile\/avatar<\/strong> in the bottom-right corner.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tap the <strong>Settings cog<\/strong> in the top-right corner.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Select <strong>Connections<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tap <strong>Add<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Select <strong>Spotify<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Log into your Spotify account when prompted.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Authorise Discord to connect to Spotify.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Discord should then display a confirmation once the Spotify connection has been successfully added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Show Spotify on Discord<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Connecting the accounts doesn&#8217;t necessarily mean you have to show everyone what you&#8217;re listening to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Discord gives you control over how your Spotify connection appears.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On desktop, go to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>User Settings \u2192 Connections \u2192 Spotify<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From here, you can enable:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Display on Profile<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This adds your connected Spotify account to your Discord profile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Display Spotify as your status<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This allows people to see the song you&#8217;re currently listening to while Spotify is playing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you want Discord friends to see what you&#8217;re listening to, make sure <strong>Display Spotify as your status<\/strong> is enabled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Does Spotify Look Like on Discord?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When Spotify is connected and your listening activity is enabled, people viewing your Discord profile can see what you&#8217;re currently listening to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Discord can display information about the music being played and provide options such as <strong>Play on Spotify<\/strong> or <strong>Listen Along<\/strong> when available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It essentially turns your Discord profile into a small window into what you&#8217;re listening to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This can be particularly useful in music-focused Discord communities where people regularly share new artists, albums and playlists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Listen to Spotify Together on Discord<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the more interesting parts of the <strong>Discord Spotify integration<\/strong> is Listen Along.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If one of your Discord friends is listening to Spotify, you may be able to join their listening session.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To use it:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Find a friend who is currently listening to Spotify.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Open their Discord profile.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Select <strong>Listen Along<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Spotify will synchronise your listening with theirs.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Spotify lists Listen Along as a Premium feature. Discord also states that friends joining a listening invite need Spotify Premium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Spotify also notes that Listen Along isn&#8217;t available while you&#8217;re voice chatting through Discord, so you may need to use text chat instead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Invite Someone to Listen to Spotify on Discord<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can also invite other Discord users to listen with you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Start playing something on Spotify and open the Discord conversation or channel where you want to share it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Discord allows you to create a listening invitation through the <strong>+<\/strong> button in the message box. You can send the invitation through a direct message, group message or Discord channel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Your friends can then select <strong>Join<\/strong> to listen with you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Spotify listening invitation is dynamic, meaning it can update as you change songs and indicate when your listening session has ended.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why Isn&#8217;t Spotify Showing on Discord?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you&#8217;ve connected Spotify but Discord isn&#8217;t showing what you&#8217;re listening to, there are several things worth checking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Check your Discord Connections settings<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Go to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>User Settings \u2192 Connections \u2192 Spotify<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Make sure <strong>Display Spotify as your status<\/strong> is enabled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Without this setting turned on, your Spotify account may be linked correctly but your current music won&#8217;t necessarily appear as your Discord status.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Disconnect and reconnect Spotify<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If the connection isn&#8217;t working properly, removing Spotify and adding it again can sometimes resolve the problem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To disconnect an account, Discord allows you to go into <strong>User Settings \u2192 Connections<\/strong>, select the relevant connection and remove it before confirming the disconnection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can then reconnect Spotify using the normal process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Restart Spotify and Discord<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Close both apps completely and reopen them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This can force Discord and Spotify to refresh the connection between the two accounts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Make sure you&#8217;re using the correct Spotify account<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you have multiple Spotify accounts, check that the account connected to Discord is the same one you&#8217;re currently using to play music.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Check your activity settings<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Make sure your Discord privacy and activity settings aren&#8217;t preventing listening activity from appearing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Disconnect Spotify From Discord<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you no longer want Spotify linked to Discord, removing it is straightforward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On desktop:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Open Discord.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Go to <strong>User Settings<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Select <strong>Connections<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Find your Spotify connection.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Select the <strong>X<\/strong> or disconnect option.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Confirm that you want to disconnect Spotify.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Discord and Spotify both document the option to remove the Spotify connection through Discord&#8217;s Connections settings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can always reconnect the accounts later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can People See What You&#8217;re Listening to on Spotify Through Discord?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes \u2014 if you&#8217;ve connected Spotify and chosen to display your Spotify listening activity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you don&#8217;t want everyone seeing your questionable 2am playlist choices, you can disable the Spotify status without necessarily removing the Spotify connection completely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Go to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Discord \u2192 User Settings \u2192 Connections \u2192 Spotify<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then turn off <strong>Display Spotify as your status<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Do You Need Spotify Premium to Connect Spotify to Discord?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No. You don&#8217;t need Spotify Premium simply to <strong>connect Spotify to Discord<\/strong> and display your Spotify account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, Spotify Premium is required for certain features involving synchronised listening, including Listen Along.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you simply want Discord friends to see what you&#8217;re currently playing, connecting your normal Spotify account is enough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can You Connect Spotify to Discord Without the App?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Discord&#8217;s desktop\/browser Connections menu can be used to manage external account connections, although Spotify&#8217;s own instructions recommend downloading and opening Discord before accessing Connections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For most people, using the Discord desktop or mobile app will be the simplest option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is It Safe to Connect Spotify to Discord?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Connecting Spotify through Discord&#8217;s official Connections system uses Spotify&#8217;s login and authorisation process rather than requiring you to give your Spotify password directly to another Discord user.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As with any connected account, it&#8217;s worth regularly checking which apps and services have access to your accounts and removing connections you no longer use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Frequently Asked Questions About Spotify and Discord<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How do I connect Spotify to Discord?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Go to <strong>Discord \u2192 User Settings \u2192 Connections \u2192 Spotify<\/strong>, log into your Spotify account and authorise the connection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How do I show Spotify on Discord?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once the accounts are connected, go to your Spotify connection in Discord and enable <strong>Display Spotify as your status<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can Discord friends see what I&#8217;m listening to?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes, if you&#8217;ve enabled Spotify listening activity on your Discord profile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Do I need Spotify Premium for Discord?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You don&#8217;t need Premium to connect your Spotify account. However, Spotify Premium is required for Discord&#8217;s Listen Along functionality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can I hide Spotify from my Discord status?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes. Go to your Spotify connection under Discord&#8217;s Connections settings and disable <strong>Display Spotify as your status<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why is my Spotify not showing on Discord?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Check that Spotify is properly connected, confirm that <strong>Display Spotify as your status<\/strong> is switched on, and try disconnecting and reconnecting Spotify if the problem continues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Connecting Spotify and Discord Takes Just a Few Minutes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once you know <strong>how to connect Spotify to Discord<\/strong>, the process is simple.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Head into Discord&#8217;s <strong>Connections<\/strong> settings, choose Spotify, log into your account and decide whether you want your listening activity displayed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Connecting the two platforms can make Discord a lot more social for music fans. You can show friends what you&#8217;re listening to, discover tracks through other people&#8217;s profiles and, with Spotify Premium, listen to music together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whether you&#8217;re hanging out in a gaming server, running a music community or simply want your friends to see what you&#8217;re playing, the <strong>Spotify Discord connection<\/strong> is an easy feature to set up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Want your friends on Discord to see exactly what you\u2019re listening to?

Groovy was a popular Discord bot that allowed users to play music inside voice channels. However, the service officially closed after receiving a legal notice and stopped operating on 30 August 2021. This means you can no longer invite or add the official Groovy bot to a Discord server. ## Can You Still Add Groovy Bot to Discord? No. Any website claiming to offer the original Groovy bot should be treated carefully. The official Groovy website confirms that the service has ended and that its source code was not released publicly. ## How to Add a Groovy Alternative to Discord You can find another music bot through Discord\u2019s App Directory: 1. Open your Discord server. 2. Click the server name in the top-left corner. 3. Select **Server Settings**. 4. Open the **App Directory**. 5. Search for a music app. 6. Select the app and click **Add App**. 7. Review the requested permissions and complete the installation. You must own the server or have the **Manage Server** permission to add most apps. Once installed, many Discord music apps can be controlled using slash commands. Type `\/` inside a text channel to view the commands available for your chosen app. Although it is no longer possible to add Groovy to Discord, the Discord App Directory contains alternative music and entertainment apps that can provide similar features.\"},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/radar\/how-to-connect-spotify-to-discord-easy-step-by-step-guide\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/radar\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"How to Connect Spotify to Discord: Easy Step-by-Step Guide\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/radar\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/radar\/\",\"name\":\"RouteNote - Radar\",\"description\":\"Radar is your home for the latest in artist and music news\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"SearchAction\",\"target\":{\"@type\":\"EntryPoint\",\"urlTemplate\":\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/radar\/?s={search_term_string}\"},\"query-input\":\"required name=search_term_string\"}],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/radar\/#\/schema\/person\/84acf3ef696cf23eb58b00a412a88b5d\",\"name\":\"Radar Team\",\"image\":{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/radar\/#\/schema\/person\/image\/14878ad60959f746cebf48c876c5110c\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/621725d9fca5b58a6007a04f779a1ebcc709300c88313b81cbffe3b1cc9c5459?s=96&d=mm&r=g\",\"contentUrl\":\"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/621725d9fca5b58a6007a04f779a1ebcc709300c88313b81cbffe3b1cc9c5459?s=96&d=mm&r=g\",\"caption\":\"Radar Team\"},\"sameAs\":[\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/radar\"],\"url\":\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/radar\/author\/rn_adm_rad\/\"}]}<\/script>\n<!-- \/ Yoast SEO plugin. -->","yoast_head_json":{"title":"How to Connect Spotify to Discord: Easy Step-by-Step Guide - RouteNote - Radar","robots":{"index":"index","follow":"follow","max-snippet":"max-snippet:-1","max-image-preview":"max-image-preview:large","max-video-preview":"max-video-preview:-1"},"canonical":"https:\/\/routenote.com\/radar\/how-to-connect-spotify-to-discord-easy-step-by-step-guide\/","og_locale":"en_US","og_type":"article","og_title":"How to Connect Spotify to Discord: Easy Step-by-Step Guide - RouteNote - Radar","og_description":"Want your friends on Discord to see exactly what you\u2019re listening to?

Groovy was a popular Discord bot that allowed users to play music inside voice channels. However, the service officially closed after receiving a legal notice and stopped operating on 30 August 2021. This means you can no longer invite or add the official Groovy bot to a Discord server. ## Can You Still Add Groovy Bot to Discord? No. Any website claiming to offer the original Groovy bot should be treated carefully. The official Groovy website confirms that the service has ended and that its source code was not released publicly. ## How to Add a Groovy Alternative to Discord You can find another music bot through Discord\u2019s App Directory: 1. Open your Discord server. 2. Click the server name in the top-left corner. 3. Select **Server Settings**. 4. Open the **App Directory**. 5. Search for a music app. 6. Select the app and click **Add App**. 7. Review the requested permissions and complete the installation. You must own the server or have the **Manage Server** permission to add most apps. Once installed, many Discord music apps can be controlled using slash commands. Type `\/` inside a text channel to view the commands available for your chosen app. Although it is no longer possible to add Groovy to Discord, the Discord App Directory contains alternative music and entertainment apps that can provide similar features."},{"@type":"BreadcrumbList","@id":"https:\/\/routenote.com\/radar\/how-to-connect-spotify-to-discord-easy-step-by-step-guide\/#breadcrumb","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Home","item":"https:\/\/routenote.com\/radar\/"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"How to Connect Spotify to Discord: Easy Step-by-Step Guide"}]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https:\/\/routenote.com\/radar\/#website","url":"https:\/\/routenote.com\/radar\/","name":"RouteNote - Radar","description":"Radar is your home for the latest in artist and music news","potentialAction":[{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https:\/\/routenote.com\/radar\/?s={search_term_string}"},"query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}],"inLanguage":"en-US"},{"@type":"Person","@id":"https:\/\/routenote.com\/radar\/#\/schema\/person\/84acf3ef696cf23eb58b00a412a88b5d","name":"Radar Team","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"en-US","@id":"https:\/\/routenote.com\/radar\/#\/schema\/person\/image\/14878ad60959f746cebf48c876c5110c","url":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/621725d9fca5b58a6007a04f779a1ebcc709300c88313b81cbffe3b1cc9c5459?s=96&d=mm&r=g","contentUrl":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/621725d9fca5b58a6007a04f779a1ebcc709300c88313b81cbffe3b1cc9c5459?s=96&d=mm&r=g","caption":"Radar Team"},"sameAs":["https:\/\/routenote.com\/radar"],"url":"https:\/\/routenote.com\/radar\/author\/rn_adm_rad\/"}]}},"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/routenote.com\/radar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/routenote_discord_chat_-profile_om147bz_-v_8.1_793bb230-1b37-43bc-a46e-faa6c4848f19_1.png","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/routenote.com\/radar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3301","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/routenote.com\/radar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/routenote.com\/radar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/routenote.com\/radar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/routenote.com\/radar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3301"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/routenote.com\/radar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3301\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3302,"href":"https:\/\/routenote.com\/radar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3301\/revisions\/3302"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/routenote.com\/radar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2839"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/routenote.com\/radar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3301"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/routenote.com\/radar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3301"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/routenote.com\/radar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3301"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/routenote.com\/radar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=3301"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
