Misleading info in quickstart guide?

Hi, I was reading over the quickstart guide for a web app and it says "Any application can request data from Spotify Web API endpoints and many endpoints are open and will return data without requiring registration" However, when I look at the console, it looks like every endpoint requires oauth. Am I missing something about one of the endpoints or is the quickstart guide outdated?

Thanks!

Maybe that line is outdated, but there is a Client Credentials Flow that doesn't require the user of your app to log in.

Thanks for the feedback! You are right, we will update the guide shortly.
