My Question or Issue

Hi, I'm developing an android app. But i need spotify's user search API. But Spotify API doesn't provide a user search endpoint.

I found a way to search users in my app and get the results. For this i need to log the users via a WebView and get their cookies. In their cookies there is a "sp_dc" value. With this value, i can get a token to search users. But I'm wondering if that's okay? Is this legal? There are lots of apps that using webview login but it's not the recommended way.
