Hi !
First, i wanted to say that i just love this python API so thank you so much guys for working on it !

Second, here is my problem, i try to use the next_track function and sometimes, there is this message :
SpotifyException: https://api.spotify.com/v1/me/player/next:
Server error.

When i click on the link of the error, there is this :

{ "error": { "status": 401, "message": "No token provided" } }

Which i don't understand why because, here is the part of my code where i use the function

And you can see that there is a token.

The thing i don't understand is : sometimes it works perfectly, and then maybe 2 or 3 times later, even if i don't change my code, there is this error

Thank you for your future helping and your time !

Ps : Here is the code if you wanna try :

import spotipy
import spotipy.util as util

def connexion(username) :

clientID = "000000000000"
clientsecret = "0000000000000000" # those 2 are fake code for you but i have one that works :) 
scope='streaming'

token = util.prompt_for_user_token(username,
                           scope,
                           client_id=clientID,
                           client_secret=clientsecret,
                           redirect_uri="http://google.com/")
     
# création of spotify object
spotifyObject = spotipy.Spotify(auth=token)

return(spotifyObject)

user = "test" # fake name too
objet = connexion(user)
objet.next_track()

Can you add your python traceback for the error? Does the error always occur on line 35 in that file?

This is a part of a file, i the entire code, the line : objet.next_track() is 161 but yes, the error is always here

I tried to change next_track() by pause_playback() and some times there is an error too

here is the traceback :

The code you've posted should work...

Maybe you are re-initializing "objet" without the token? Can you share the rest of your code via Pastebin?

i think it was a problem of time
i tried to reconnect the account one time per 30 seconds

but if i try to reconnect only like 1 time per 3 minutes, it works

Thanks for the feedback, but if it is still happening you should definitely report it on https://github.com/spotify/web-api/
