Hi there,
I am trying to run some code that will return playlist data however get the error:

AttributeError: module 'spotipy.util' has no attribute 'oauth2'

This occurs after attempting to run:

token = util.oauth2.SpotifyClientCredentials(client_id=CLIENT_ID, client_secret=CLIENT_SECRET)
cache_token = token.get_access_token()
sp = spotipy.Spotify(cache_token)

Very new to this, any help would be greatly appreciated, cheers.

I'm not sure where you got this code from but it is wrong as spotipy.util clearly has no attribute oauth2

Please check the README, examples, and documentation for hints on how to get started.
