Web API quota updates for Development Mode

Web API quota updates for Development Mode

Hey everyone, I've created this thread to share some updates to how quotas work for Development Mode apps on the Spotify Web API to help you better organize your projects.

 

We've shared a Blog post that explains everything in detail. Here's the short version:

 

What's changing

 

  • Client ID limit increased from 1 to 25 per developer account
  • Quota counting is now per developer account, not per Client ID — all your Development Mode apps share a single quota
  • We’re making it easier to distinguish quota limits from rate limits, so the 429 error responses now include a "reason": "QUOTA_EXCEEDED" field. 

 

What you need to do

 

  • Handle the new 429 response body — use the reason field to distinguish quota limits from rate limits
  • If you use multiple Development Mode Client IDs, be aware they now share a single quota pool

 

We'll do our best to answer questions in this thread, and we'll add any updates to this post..
