Recommendations webapi endpoint includes hidden artists

[kukawskicorp]

The endpoint

https://developer.spotify.com/documentation/web-api/reference/get-recommendations

includes results of "hidden" artists of user that token was used to make API call

is there way through API to filtter this out or get rid of?

Hi kukawskicorp, could you please provide an example of these hidden artists? Maybe also the request you are doing to get these?

Hi... this forum is so broken... I replied to you week ago but my reply still doesnt show up... what's going on? I dont have a copy of it but I received a reply badge!

I don't know, I see new threads and replies in other parts of the community. Could you try to post it again, it doesn't have to be super extensive, just something for us to follow up on and see if we can reproduce.

Ok, here is a good example: 

API request URL :

https://api.spotify.com/v1/recommendations?limit=100&seed_artists=6hUkLvzORaeTWL0lx3GW5n&min_duratio...

in recommendations response it recommends track that is "Hidden" to not play (due to dislike or other reason):
