"/artists/id" endpoint ignores "limit" and "market" query values

"/artists/id" endpoint ignores "limit" and "market" query values

When trying to fetch artist's top track or albums I'm trying to use the /artists/id/albums and /artists/id/top-tracks endpoints.

 

In the documentation for /artists/id/albums it states that we can provide limit value so that only a number of albums will be returned. That is not working at all, here is an example URL I'm using to get the response from API:

 

 

https://api.spotify.com/v1/artists/6vWDO969PvNqNYHIOW5v0m/albums?include_groups=album,single,compilation,appears_on&limit=10&market=PL&offset=0

 

 

This should return 10 of Beyonce's albums which are available in Poland (the market parameter), but instead I get all of her albums, many of which are duplicates and most of them are not even available in Poland

The query I posted is built exactly how the docs say it should be so I suspect it's a bug in Spotify, although the official Spotify app's don't have this issue from what I can tell.
