My Question or Issue

Ok, so i installed a program called spotify TUI, which puts spotify in your terminal, you just have to add the app in dev settings. I installed spotify TUI under the linux compatibility layer. And it connected to the web app, but if i tried to play a song off of the terminal, it gives me a 403 error. Please help me, because i wanna show this to my freinds and show them how to do it.

Hi @ChromebookDev, are you using a Spotify Premium account? The documentation for the v1/me/player/play endpoint can be found here — you'll receive a 403 error response from that endpoint if you call it using a free account.
