Spotify Search API Issue - 404 not found

Spotify Search API Issue - 404 not found

There currently seems to be an issue with the Search API - basic queries are suddenly and randomly returning "404 not found" errors.


Sometimes the exact same query works after a few retries.

 

The status page at https://status.spotify.dev does not yet reflect it.

 

Is this a known issue and is someone looking into it? And is anyone else experiencing the same behaviour?

 

I'll attach an img from the tryout section of the official docs at https://developer.spotify.com/documentation/web-api/reference/search, where the issue can be reproduced.

Thanks!

I'm experiencing the same currently.

I have the same problem!
Only a few of many requests to /search actually respond with the real results, all the others send a 404 back. 

I always used the same search parameters and tried different waiting times between requests, so its not a problem of sending too many requests. 

same here!

Same here, same issue. It seems random, but successful requests are the minority

Thanks for pointing this out. The team is looking into the issue now and we will have an update when we know more.

Same issue

 

still same issue

 

Same here while performing the Request from Sales Cloud. It works 100% of the times when I do the same from Postman though.

Yea Im on Hetzner and im having this issue too

The same problem. At first I thought the problem was with my own layer, but the search doesn't work with the API.

Same problem here as of 11th of june. Relieved to see it's just not me having this problem all of a sudden. Hope it will get fixed soon. 

There is still an issue with search that needs to be fixed, and we are waiting for it to be resolved.

Same here 😪

Same here, it started failing with 404 all of a sudden since couple of days, without any changes on my application.

I am also experiencing this issue since two or three days - it started last friday with me not being able to play songs via the API and now I have the same issue as you too.

Seems to be working again for me 🙂

Yes, seems back to normal now. 🙂

Search is ok, but offset seems to be ignored? Anyone else?

All working fine right now on my side too.

Thanks all for jumping in, and for fixing 👍
