My Question or Issue
Because of the recent API changes and the lack of preview_url fields in SimpleTrack Objects I was wondering how to get a full track object
The way the API changes were phrased it made it seem like it would only affect multi-get requests but even with the /v1/tracks/{tracksID} endpoint it's giving me the same simplified data and nulled preview_url field
Hi there, @Carbxi
What is the purpose of getting "a full track object" exactly?
You still can get previews with the Get Track endpoint, just not with the API endpoint to get multiple tracks.
edit: fixed typo
The Get Track endpoint is returning with a null preview_url field, I've already tried specifying a market, and I've used super popular songs, not one will return a preview_url
EG https://api.spotify.com/v1/tracks/1BxfuPKGuaTgP7aM0Bbdwr?market=CA
Sorry, you are right. This is a bug, or I misunderstood "30-second preview URLs, in multi-get responses (SimpleTrack object)".
Sorry for the confusion, it is basically the 30-second preview URL for any track (no matter what endpoint you use to get it).
is there any plan to bring back preview urls?
No, I don't believe we will ever see it return. But you never know.
