Getting Bad Request while saving a specific track

blackarcanis — Wed, 09 Nov 2022 10:22:14 GMT

Hi!

We are getting an HTTP 400 and "Bad request" response while sending this track ID to save to the user collection: "5tz69p7tJuGPeMGwNTxYuV". It seems happening with a few other track IDs too like this one "6ilWjJAvXy4dnfwBEDetFF".

The response: "error" : {
"status" : 400,
"message" : "Bad request."
}

And here is the API method: https://developer.spotify.com/documentation/web-api/reference/#/operations/save-tracks-user

And no issue with 90% of any other track IDs...

Any idea why?

The /me/tracks and /me/albums endpoints seem to have stopped accepting IDs in the body.

It should work if you add them to the query string instead. I just tested your IDs and it worked (got 1-800 and All Falls Down in my library).

Essentially, try the endpoint like this "/me/tracks?ids=5tz69p7tJuGPeMGwNTxYuV"

I analysed your query and found a relevant solution to it. Few weeks back I also faced the same issue for my Atlanta project. Go to below link

Yes, it seems to be that; thank you so much for your help!
