Can't retrieve Spotify-based playlists

Solved!

Can't retrieve Spotify-based playlists

I'm working on a local copy of SpotMyBackup, since that project is no longer being supported. I've noticed that my local version (Development mode) is not retrieving Spotify-based playlists that are in my Library, but the "real" SpotMyBackup does.

 

I'm guessing that this is because my version is in Development mode, but I don't see anything in the documentation explicitly stating this limitation. Could someone please confirm that this is the cause?

Might have something to do with Spotify killing the endpoint you were using sadly.

Point 8 might be the one causing your app to not work, it killed my app entirely, only 6 months of daily development down the drain.

Oh...I bet that's it. I read that list and managed to skim right over that point.

 

Thanks for pointing this out, and sorry about all of your lost dev time! 😞
