Web API - Disliked tracks endpoint

Web API - Disliked tracks endpoint

Requesting a web API endpoint for disliked tracks. Currently the user has the ability to "Hide track" on a album, but to my knowledge, there is no way to create, read, update or delete (CRUD) a users disliked tracks via the web API.

 

The use case I have in mind is, I am creating a playlist for a user based on their followed artists, however I want to exclude tracks they have previously hidden/disliked.

 

This feature was previously requested here:

https://github.com/spotify/web-api/issues/710

While this endpoint has been added for 'liked' tracks, it still doesn't exist for 'disliked' tracks.

Thanks for letting us know that this is something you'd like to see, @dmgdpnk, and for outlining the use case. I'll share this idea with folks on the Web API team.

Did we get it yet?

Not to my knowledge.

I have a use case for this as well!

 

I would like to build a utility that allows a user to programmatically hide all of the non-Taylor's Version songs for which a Taylor's version equivalent exists.

 

There is a broader use case where the same principle could be applied to any community-maintained song list.

I would also "Like" to be able to get a list of the "Dislikes"
Seems like basic functionality for any custom app digesting a user's data. 
Let us know if this is on the roadmap, thanks!
