Where do I find category IDs for web API

[mrhoody]

My Question or Issue

Hi there, is a comprehensive list of genre Category IDs available for reference? "pop" and "hiphop" both seem to work but I'd rather not have to keep guessing for all the genres I will need to look up as part of my project.

Relevant API portion is here: https://developer.spotify.com/documentation/web-api/reference/browse/get-category/

Thanks

You can get all the categories that work from that endpoint with Get Several Browse Categories the Id returned from a list of these will be the value to pass as the category_id to the Get Single Browse Category endpoint

 can you provide a working link for the list of categories? the above link is not found.

I've updated the links in my original answer as the new documentation now has different links for getting all or one category from the Spotify API

Also if you just want to scroll through the categories independent from the API, they are all listed in under Browse All in https://open.spotify.com/search
