How to add Spotify URL Scheme in Xcode?

I am using the Spotify iOS SDK, I followed the tutorial on the official page and everything was fine until I tried submitting to iTunes connect for testing and I got an error giving an invalid url scheme. This is what I meant in the list:

spotify-action://

      

        
        
        
      

    

which I then changed to

spotify-action

      

        
        
        
      

    

This allows me to post to itunes connect, but the input stream is interrupted - when I click the login button, nothing happens. no errors, no warnings.

If I add ": //" to the URL scheme, the Spotify App starts up and authenticates correctly

this is the function i use to login:

func openLoginPage() {
    let auth = SPTAuth.defaultInstance()
    if SPTAuth.supportsApplicationAuthentication() {
        guard let url = auth?.spotifyAppAuthenticationURL() else { return }
        if #available(iOS 10.0, *) {
            if(!UIApplication.shared.openURL(auth!.spotifyAppAuthenticationURL())){
                self.showAlertL(message: "Link won't work for some reason", link: url)
            }
            else{
                print("This works - start screen");
                print(schemeAvailable(scheme: "\(url)"))
            }
            print("This is the URL For Spotify ios 10 \(String(describing: auth?.spotifyAppAuthenticationURL()))")
        } else {
            print("This is the URL For Spotify old \(auth!.spotifyAppAuthenticationURL())")               
            UIApplication.shared.openURL(auth!.spotifyAppAuthenticationURL())
        }
    } else {
        self.authViewController = self.getAuthViewController(withURL: SPTAuth.defaultInstance().spotifyWebAuthenticationURL())
        self.definesPresentationContext = true
        self.present(self.authViewController!, animated: true, completion: { () in })
    }
}

      

        
        
        
      

    

canOpenURL always returns true, regardless of whether I use "spotify-action: //" or just "spotify-action" in the URL scheme.

UIApplication.shared.canOpenURL(url)

      

        
        
        
      

    

just in case you are wondering, this is the content of the url (i removed the redirect URI part)

spotify-action://authorize?
