My Question or Issue

Hello Spotify Developer Support,

We experienced widespread API failures with the Spotify Ads API v3 on August 15-18, 2025, and wanted to inquire if there was a known service disruption.

Issue Details:

- Time Period: August 15-18, 2025

- API: Spotify Ads API v3 (api-partner.spotify.com/ads/v3/)

- Symptoms: Multiple endpoints returning empty responses or authentication errors for previously working accounts

- Impact: Production data collection failures across multiple client accounts

Example Failing Endpoints:

- /businesses/{id}/ad_accounts

- /ad_accounts/{id}/campaigns

- /ad_accounts/{id}/ads

The issues resolved automatically without changes on our end, suggesting a service-side incident.

Could you confirm if there was a planned maintenance or unplanned outage during this period? This information helps us distinguish between service disruptions and integration issues.

Additional Context:

We recently migrated from v2 to v3 and have noticed increased API volatility. Any guidance on best practices for the v3 migration would be appreciated.

Thank you for your assistance!
