Importing throws TypeError

[alexklann]

Describe the bug Importing spotipy into my project throws a TypeError

Your code

import spotipy
from spotipy.oauth2 import SpotifyOAuth

scope = "user-library-read"

sp = spotipy.Spotify(auth_manager=SpotifyOAuth(scope=scope))

results = sp.current_user_saved_tracks()
for idx, item in enumerate(results['items']):
    track = item['track']
    print(idx, track['artists'][0]['name'], " – ", track['name'])

Output

TypeError                                 Traceback (most recent call last)

Can you specify what caused this to happen?

This just randomly vanished when I tried this in an actual python project and not in a jupyter notebook
