403 Error Accessing Top Endpoint

zblender — Tue, 16 Mar 2021 06:23:25 GMT

Hi - I'm having issues accessing the top endpoint (https://api.spotify.com/v1/me/top/[type]). Returning 403 Forbidden error.

i've checked that I've included user-top-read in my scopes and I'm able to access other endpoints like me/player/recently-played or https://api.spotify.com/v1/me/playlists without a problem.

I'm stumped why the top endpoint is not behaving. Has anybody seen this before? Any suggestions are appreciated!

Does it work for you from the developer console?

Hey thanks for your prompt reply on this!

I believe it was working on the console last night, but I went back into my code today and tried the endpoint, worked like a charm (without any changes).

I'm assuming some kind of temporary outage.

Anyway, thanks for your help.
