https://community.spotify.com/t5/Spotify-for-Developers/timeout-errors-in-API-calls/m-p/5582203#M9242 <P>I've been using the spotify API to get metadata on ~5000 albums or so. Perhaps I wasn't doing rate limiting properly or something, but I suddenly found my API calls timing out and I haven't been able to make a single API call in well over a day. I can't seem to find any info on whether spotify will block someone from making calls for a while or something, so any help is appreciated.<BR /><BR />I'm not getting any error codes, but after I successfully get a valid access token, I can't use it to make any API calls (everything takes forever and ultimately throws a timeout error). Using a VPN or different wifi hasn't changed anything, and traceroute doesn't indicate that its anything to do with my connection either. I have not tried a different machine (don't have access to one). Just wondering if anyone has any guidance on this issue.</P> Wed, 17 May 2023 06:22:23 GMT 7anooch 2023-05-17T06:22:23Z https://community.spotify.com/t5/Spotify-for-Developers/timeout-errors-in-API-calls/m-p/5582203#M9242 <P>I've been using the spotify API to get metadata on ~5000 albums or so.
