My Question or Issue
For some reason, making a query to "Get a track" method using track id 7swIKcU4tFRk4iFJpi12Fg returns a track object with empty "available_markets". My question is what does that mean? Is the track available in every country or is this a bug? I could not find anything about this in the API docs.
This is the full track object that I got:
