Description: Spotify is removing/replacing several Web API endpoints and response fields starting 2026-02-11. This updates the Java wrapper to match the new API surface. Removed endpoints Batch gets: GET /albums, /artists, /tracks, /episodes, /shows Browse: GET /browse/categories, /browse/categories/{id}, /browse/new-releases Artists: GET /artists/{id}/top-tracks Users: GET /users/{id}, GET /users/{id}/playlists Type-specific library mutations: PUT|DELETE /me/{albums,tracks,episodes,shows} — replaced by unified endpoints New unified library endpoints PUT /me/library — SaveToLibraryRequest accepts Spotify URIs DELETE /me/library — RemoveFromLibraryRequest accepts Spotify URIs // Old: type-specific spotifyApi.saveTracksForUser("id1", "id2").build().execute(); // New: unified, URI-based spotifyApi.saveToLibrary("spotify:track:id1", "spotify:track:id2").build().execute(); Updated endpoints CreatePlaylistRequest: POST /users/{user_id}/playlists → POST /me/playlists // Old spotifyApi.createPlaylist("user_id", "My Playlist").build(); // New spotifyApi.createPlaylist("My Playlist").build(); Model field removals Model Removed fields Album availableMarkets, externalIds, label, popularity AlbumSimplified albumGroup, availableMarkets Artist followers, popularity Track availableMarkets, externalIds, linkedFrom, popularity TrackSimplified availableMarkets, linkedFrom Show / ShowSimplified availableMarkets, publisher User country, email, followers, product Playlist field renames Per Spotify's schema change, playlist item fields are renamed across Playlist, PlaylistSimplified, and PlaylistTrack: Playlist.getTracks() → getItems() PlaylistSimplified.getTracks() → getItems() PlaylistTrack.getTrack() → getItem() JSON keys updated accordingly ("tracks" → "items", "track" → "item"). ⚠️ Breaking changes This is a major breaking change for consumers. Method removals, signature changes, and field renames will require callers to update their code. Original prompt This section details on the original issue you should resolve fix(spotify)!: major changes to the api starting 2026-02-11 ## 📌 Important: Spotify Developer Platform Changes (Not Controlled by This Project) Spotify has announced upcoming changes to Spotify for Developers that will affect Development Mode applications and Web API access. This project is a community-maintained Java API wrapper, developed by voluntary contributors and not affiliated with Spotify in any way. The rules described below are Spotify’s decisions, not policies set or endorsed by this repository or its maintainers. 🔗 Spotify announcement: Update on Developer Access and Platform Security (Posted Feb 6, 2026) ⚠️ Current state of this library The Java API wrapper has not yet been updated to reflect Spotify’s newly announced restrictions. As Spotify begins enforcing these changes, issues are expected to appear (auth failures, missing endpoint access, quota errors, etc.). These changes are as frustrating for maintainers as they are for users — they are imposed externally and cannot be overridden here. The maintainers will not be updating the code immediately, but PRs adapting to the new Spotify constraints are welcome. Please keep in mind: if something breaks due to these changes, it is not something maintainers can “fix” on Spotify’s behalf. 🔄 Summary of what Spotify is changing Spotify is tightening access to its developer platform, particularly for Development Mode apps. Starting February 11, 2026 (new apps) All newly created Development Mode Client IDs will have these restrictions: A Spotify Premium account is required One Development Mode Client ID per developer Up to 5 authorized users per Client ID Access limited to a smaller subset of Web API endpoints Starting March 9, 2026 (existing apps) The same rules will be applied retroactively to all existing Development Mode integrations. 🧪 What this means for users of this wrapper Development Mode is now explicitly limited to learning, experimentation, and personal, non-commercial use Projects that previously worked may: Fail authorization Lose access to endpoints Encounter stricter quotas or unexplained API errors These failures may occur without any change to this library’s code If your app stops working around these dates, the cause is almost certainly Spotify platform enforcement, not a regression in this repository. 💬 Where to discuss these changes (please read) Questions, complaints, or feedback about Spotify’s policy changes should not be opened as issues in this repository. The maintainers cannot resolve platform-level decisions and do not have a direct channel to Spotify. 👉 Please direct discussion to Spotify’s official community thread instead: https://community.spotify.com/t5/Community-Prep/February-2026-Spotify-for-Developers-update-thread/m-p/7330564 Issues opened here should be limited to: Wrapper bugs unrelated to Spotify policy Concrete PRs adapting to the new constraints Reproducible technical issues that can be addressed within this codebase Thank you for understanding the limits of what a community-maintained project can realistically support under externally imposed platform changes.
