This snippet allows you to get information about Spotify songs, albums & artists using a slash command. You need to register a slash command named "search-spotify" via the [command builder](https://autocode.com/tools/discord/command-builder/) with two string options, `search` & `query`. 'search' will be for the search type, which can be either 'song', 'album' or 'artist'.
