Issue in downloaded Spotify Playlist data from Web API

[ManognaNampally]

HI All,

We observed that the playlist data which is downloaded from Spotify API has some duplicate data. Playlist is downloaded twice which is causing an issue while processing.

Please find some examples in the document attached and let us know if that is normal.

What I've been experiencing so far is that - if the API returns 500 - every single time there was an error/bug in my request parameters (e.g. Querying for a playlist's tracks with offset=100 but total<100 results in HTTP 500 - which should actually be 4xx since the client made the mistake but the server can't handle it). So you should first take a look on your request.

From your initial comment:

Steps to reproduce: Open the API Console Call the get-users-profile endpoint with user_id %5E

Works fine for me in the console (except: do not encode '^' to %5E in the console manually) as well as in a test NodeJS script.

From your last comment:

https://api.spotify.com/v1/

This is not a valid endpoint. Is this URL used in your code? Then a 500 Error is an okay response i guess.
