Sudden breaking API changes - Depreciated endpoints #1172

Open pretoriusdre opened 3 days ago

pretoriusdre commented 3 days ago

Describe the bug Spotify have made sudden breaking changes to their API, depreciating many endpoints (making them unavailable to many current users)

https://developer.spotify.com/blog/2024-11-27-changes-to-the-web-api

Additional context Spotipy documentation might need to be updated to reflect this depreciation.

Of course on the day I finish something that makes use of their audio analysis 💀

This is the worst. They also made it impossible to retrieve data from playlists like Release Radar or New Music Friday, which I was using on weekly basis.

I ran into the same problem with my personal script I used every week to get data from Release Radar.

A workaround for that is copying these playlists using the Spotify app (mobile or desktop) and using that playlist to retrieve data from it.

I think Spotify is trying to keep the data they generate on their site. But this breaks more "normal" applications than malicious ones.
