My Question or Issue

I use the "react-spotify-web-playback" library to generate a spotify webplayer for my website, but when my group members log in, the player returns a 403 forbidden error (user not approved). I granted my group members access on the dashboard, but to no avail.

When I try log in, the player loads just fine. Giving them my access token and hardcoding it to test on their end, also allowed the player to load properly.

Below an image of the error.

Any help would be appreciated!

presumably duplicate of this thread which I am also eagerly waiting for a fix.

Hi!

We discovered a bug related to adding users which has now been fixed. Can you confirm if it works as intended now?

Note: There is a 5 minute delay, so if you're adding new users it can take up to 5 minutes before the changes take effect.

My group member just tried it and the player loads properly for him now. I can confirm this issue has been resolved. Thank you!
