Recommendation endpoint doesn't respond

Recommendation endpoint doesn't respond

I'm developing a flask application that uses the recommendation endpoint to generate new playlists. Currently in development mode, with the only active user being myself. I ran into an issue yesterday where all my endpoint requests seem to be working flawlessly apart from GET RECOMMENDATIONS requests. I'm writing my code in python and I'm using the spotipy python wrapper to perform my requests. Whenever I try to retrieve recommendations using spotipy's get_recommmendations() function using track seeds, my program seems to get endlessly stuck on that request, never returning anything or raising any errors. This issue started occurring suddenly yesterday around 7pm and is still presenting today... Anyone can offer help or provide some clarification on what is happening here?

Hello. I got the exact same problème except I’m working with Symfony and also a Spotify wrapper to communicate with the API. Issue appeared Monday evening for me, disappeared tuesday evening and suddently reappeared on Wednesday. 

Page stuck like you with no way to catch the error. When working with local server I even have to reboot it. 

I tried to do the same request via the Spotify API console you get in the documentation page and this works…

 

 

Similar issue here. Also using flask and my programm is getting stuck on 

spotify_sp.current_playback()
Not returning anything or raising any error.
Happening since yesterday evening.
