Spotify App for Spotify Creators Data Extract

Spotify App for Spotify Creators Data Extract

Hi Spotify Community,

I'm trying to access the Podcasters Analytics API programmatically and I'm running into some issues. I'd love some help from anyone who has experience with this.

My situation:
- I have a podcast hosted on Spotify for Creators (formerly Anchor)
- I have a team member account with Analytics Reader permissions
- I created an app in the Spotify Developer Dashboard

What I've tried:
1. Client Credentials Flow โ€” I get a valid token, but the `/podcasters-analytics-api/licensors` endpoint returns an empty response (no licensor_id associated with my account)
2. Authorization Code Flow โ€” returns a 403 error even though I have Analytics Reader access on the team
3. Cookie-based auth using `sp_dc` and `sp_key` with `creator-auth-proxy/v1/web/token` โ€” returns 404

My questions:
1. Does a team member with Analytics Reader permissions have any way to access the Podcasters Analytics API?
2. Is the `licensor_id` only available to the podcast owner (the account that created it on Anchor)?
3. What is the correct authentication flow for a team manager to access analytics data via API?
4. Has the `creator-auth-proxy` endpoint or its `client_id` changed recently?

Any help or pointers to updated documentation would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
