Global authetication for all web app users

Solved!

Global authetication for all web app users

I'm trying to implement the the spotify api in a way where the client doesn't need to have a spotify account to use my app.

 

My apps scope would be limited to browsing data and listening to track previews which are features that are available to everybody, not just logged in users (spotify web player and embeds).

 

SInce all api calls require authentication i was wondering if there exist an option to share my authentication with all clients in a limited scope (search album, album data and track preview samples) .

 

What would be the best way to go about this?

For an app with basic functionality that doesn't access user data, you can use Client Credentials.
