My Question or Issue

I cannot play my liked songs in the web client.
From the network page of the browser developer options i can see the request to play being made, but then it returns 403.

this is the request:

{
   "command":{
      "context":{
         "uri":"spotify:user:viozzis333:collection",
         "url":"context://spotify:user:viozzis333:collection",
         "metadata":{
            "sorting.criteria":"added_at DESC, album_title, album_artist_name, album_disc_number, album_track_number"
         }
      },
      "play_origin":{
         "feature_identifier":"your_library",
         "feature_version":"web-player_2025-03-22_1742624181643_5abf456",
         "referrer_identifier":"your_library"
      },
      "options":{
         "license":"tft",
         "skip_to":{
            
         },
         "player_options_override":{
            
         }
      },
      "logging_params":{
         "page_instance_ids":[
            "bc58fb13-33c3-4a40-b152-0a8dcc947e3a"
         ],
         "interaction_ids":[
            "7e1d97e2-3b65-4a8d-af14-95578b9f7432"
         ],
         "command_id":"f1b8278e155aeface3b6038dbd6186bd"
      },
      "endpoint":"play"
   }
}

This is the response:

{
   "error_code":"PLAYER_COMMAND_REJECTED",
   "error_description":"command_rejected",
   "reasons":[
      "command_not_allowed"
   ]
}

Why Am I not allowed to play my liked songs? 
It worked until a week ago or so.

other playlists work fine.

i need to mention that my liked song playlist is big (20k songs), but i just need a shuffle from them, i will not break down the playlist into smaller ones. I just need random sampling from my liked song playlist.

Thank you.

Hey @simone-viozzi, welcome to the Spotify Community! 🎵

Could you confirm and check a few things:

1. Try incognito mode
2. Disable any AdBlocker, VPN, or DNS service if active
3. See if liked songs are playable on other devices like the desktop app or the mobile app
4. Change your internet network from WiFi to Mobile Data or vice versa

Let me know how it goes. 🙂
