I'm a developer seeking to integrate Spotify's Web API into my project for podcast analytics. I'm specifically interested in obtaining information about the total consumption time for podcast episodes, not limited to the default 7-day period.
Upon reviewing the existing examples in the repository, I couldn't find any related to podcast analytics or retrieving total consumption time for episodes. Would it be possible to add examples or provide guidance on how to retrieve this type of data using the Spotify Web API?
Any assistance or insights on this matter would be highly appreciated. Thank you for your attention to this request.
Here is what I got so far
