Using Spotify
Listen Everywhere
I have an app that searches for a specific artist to retrieve some information. However, I've encountered a peculiar issue when attempting to fetch an artist using the Spotify API.
For instance, when I use the URL (https://api.spotify.com/v1/search?q=Drake&type=artist) in POSTMAN, the first result I receive is an artist named "Draken" instead of "Drake" (see image 1).
What makes this problem even stranger is that when I use the same URL on the Spotify API reference page (https://developer.spotify.com/documentation/web-api/reference/search), it works correctly and returns the correct artist "Drake" (see image 2).
Furthermore, this issue has only recently surfaced. I did not encounter this problem the last time I used my app, which was approximately three months ago.
