403 forbidden error

saliht — Sun, 16 Apr 2023 14:50:36 GMT

My Spotify account is premium. When I am using "playlist-modify-private" scope I got this error "http status: 403" Also, I run my code and confirm the warning in the browser. Why could this be caused? Here my code:

import spotipy
from spotipy.oauth2 import SpotifyOAuth

sp = spotipy.Spotify(
    auth_manager=SpotifyOAuth(
        scope="playlist-modify-private",
        redirect_uri="http://localhost:8888/callback",
        show_dialog=True,
        client_id=client_id,
        client_secret=client_secret,
        cache_path="token.txt",
        ))


results = sp.current_user_saved_tracks()

You are trying to read a user saved tracks with the playlist-modify-private scope.

You should use the user-library-read scope instead.

See the following page for all scopes: https://developer.spotify.com/documentation/web-api/concepts/scopes
