403 forbidden error

403 forbidden error

 

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
