Illegal Scopes

[jahosh]

I'm getting an "Illegal Scope" response from the oauth endpoint flow when using the command line token generator - it seems these scopes may be illegal?

&scope=user-top-read+user-read-recently-played

[jahosh]

could be related: spotify/web-api#1262

update: can confirm it is scope : user-top-read after removing that from the authorize url, i stopped receiving the "illegal scopes" response

I've tried it on my end but couldn't reproduce it. Maybe Spotify fixed the issue on their end in the meantime. Could you try it again and report back if it worked for you? :)

I'm getting the same error, user-top-read is the problem

Hmm, that's weird. I could take that scope out of the oauth request but then I guess you won't be able to access your most played tracks.

Actually, I fixed it by deleting my app on the Spotify dev dashboard and making a new one.

I've added that workaround to the readme and marked this issue as fixed for now. It seems to be a problem on Spotify's side, but feel free to reopen it, if necessary :)
