Search endpoint is not working anymore

Search endpoint is not working anymore

Simple as, search endpoint is at the moment not functional despite what is being displayed on the status page. It doesn't work on the playground/sandbox code in the docs, it doesn't work on the default example from the docs, it doesn't work using anything, either fetching or using Spotipy. My access token is correct, I'm not rate limited, all of the other API endpoints work as expected.

 

Search endpoint is now returning like 85% of the time error 404 'message': 'not found'. It does occasionally work and returns the expected result so maybe that's why it's still classified as operational but it doesn't work most of the time. I don't think calling this endpoint until it works is intended.

 

There is no update or announcement from you and I'm not sure if you're aware of the issue. I would greatly appreciate having this fixed as I rely heavily on your API for a personal project. Thank you very much ❤️

 

edit: I swear the other post that is also about this issue didn't show for me before I posted. This site is also having issues, a few hours ago it refused to let me post something and even now it's having huge delays. Sorry for the repost!
