Debug

Known issues

gotchaAPI is readonly: only GET endpoints are supported. No playback control or playlist modification.

fix

Use other libraries (e.g., spotipy) for write operations.

affects: all

gotchaClient credentials flow only. User-specific tokens not supported; endpoints requiring user authentication (e.g., user playlists) are limited.

fix

Pass a valid client_id and client_secret from Spotify Developer Dashboard.

affects: all

deprecatedSearch endpoint may return inconsistent results due to API version changes.

fix

Use specific methods like spotify.track() where possible.

affects: 0.2.10+
