BadCredentials

[11plustwo]

I'm getting "BadCredentials" error when I try to use Zotify.

FYI, there is an existing ticket for this issue but it is closed and I'm unsure if the devs get notified about closed tickets. The existing ticket is https://github.com/zotify-dev/zotify/issues/167

I tried on mac and Windows.

macOS Ventura 13.6.9:

Having the same error on Debian 13.2.0

[rkmfl]

Same error despite immediately authenticating using the same credentials via the Spotify website.

Also accessing natively from a static IP in the U.S. where I've always used the service from.

No reason for some of the known issues; this is a new issue with Spotify/Zotify

I suspect this is because spotify changed how users authenticate.

I suspect this is because spotify changed how users authenticate.

what is the possible fix to this ?

[Glaedr304]

I am going to wait until the dev pushes an update, but if you are asking me how I think that should be implemented, I unfortunately have no idea.

Duplicate of #174; see this comment for a workaround.

how to authenticate using the new oauth way:

install git, rust and cargo, download the following branch of librespot https://github.com/kingosticks/librespot/tree/credentials_with_access_token

run branch using:

cargo run --no-default-features -- --cache . --token ""

you'll need to open a link and let it redirect to the local librespot webservice.

if everything went well you end up with a credentials.json in the directory, which looks like this:

{
  "username": "QWERQWERQWERQWER",
  "auth_type": 1,
  "auth_data": "ASDFASDFASDF"
}

change it to look like the follwing:

{
  "username": "QWERQWERQWERQWER",
  "type": "AUTHENTICATION_STORED_SPOTIFY_CREDENTIALS",
  "credentials": "ASDFASDFASDF"
}

and you're done - don't forget to refrence the credentials.json in you zotify/config.json

I have a problem with this, when I run the command

cargo run --no-default-features -- --cache . --token ""

I get a bunch of warnings, and after that the credentials.json file is not created, it doesn't open any link on my internet browser, and I get this output

Error parsing command line options: Unrecognized option: 'token'

I'm not sure I understand the part about the local librespot webservice, is it something more I have to set up?
