I had to prefix the trackid with "spotify:track:" when using Add-PlaylistItem

[mattypenny]

Describe the bug

First...I'm really enjoying playing with the module. Great stuff!

In all likelihood I've just misunderstood something, but this is what I found

When I tried to run:

 Add-PlaylistItem -Id $PlaylistId -ItemId $TrackId -ApplicationName $ApplicationName

I got an error:

Error adding track to playlist:  {   "error": {     "status": 400,     "message": "Invalid base62 id"   } }

I added this to my code:

$TrackId = "spotify:track:$TrackId"

...and that seemed to fix it (although there's every chance I've misunderstood)

To Reproduce
Add-PlaylistItem -Id 57Gg47irhv6DDuQ8LH0t8R -ItemId 7wSco4c7DSaTvcrryRmy6S -ApplicationName Spotishell

...whereas if I do:

Add-PlaylistItem -Id 57Gg47irhv6DDuQ8LH0t8R -ItemId "spotify:track:7wSco4c7DSaTvcrryRmy6S" -ApplicationName Spotishell

....it works

Expected behavior
Track added to playlist

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: Windows 11, Powershell 7
• Version 11

This page does imply you (now) need the prefix

Thanks for filing this. Haven't been able to support this module the way I want but your bug isn't ignored! Will try to take a look at this in the coming weeks.
