Describe the bug
Upon invoking the function with valid parameters , only 2 playlists out of total 3 playlists are fetched by the function call.

Your code
import pandas as pd
import spotipy
from spotipy.oauth2 import SpotifyClientCredentials

Spotify API credentials

client_id = ''
client_secret = ''
username = ''

Create a dataframe to store information of my playlists

my_playlists = pd.DataFrame(columns=["id", "spotify_id", "list_name"])

Getting playlist info from Spotify

client_credentials_manager = SpotifyClientCredentials(client_id=client_id, client_secret=client_secret)
sp = spotipy.Spotify(client_credentials_manager=client_credentials_manager)

playlists = []
results = sp.user_playlists(username)
playlists.extend(results['items'])
while results['next']:
results = sp.next(results)
playlists.extend(results['items'])

Extracting playlist information

for playlist in playlists:
playlist_id = playlist['id']
spotify_id = playlist['uri']
list_name = playlist['name']
my_playlists = pd.concat([my_playlists, pd.DataFrame({"id": [playlist_id], "spotify_id": [spotify_id], "list_name": [list_name]})], ignore_index=True)

Creating dataframes to store song and feature information

my_songs = pd.DataFrame(columns=["list_id", "song_id", "song_name", "artist", "popularity", "release_date"])
my_features = pd.DataFrame(columns=["song_id", "energy", "liveness", "tempo", "speechiness", "acousticness",
"instrumentalness", "danceability", "duration_ms", "loudness", "valence",
"mode", "key"])

Getting song info and features from each playlist

for list_id in my_playlists["spotify_id"]:
songs = []
playlist_tracks = sp.playlist_tracks(list_id, fields=None, limit=100, offset=0, market=None)
songs += playlist_tracks['items']
while playlist_tracks['next']:
playlist_tracks = sp.next(playlist_tracks)
songs += playlist_tracks['items']
for song in songs:
if song['track'] is None or song['track']['id'] is None:
continue

    row = {
        "list_name" : list_name,
        "list_id": list_id,
        "song_id": song['track']['id'],
        "song_name": song['track']['name'],
        "artist": song['track']['artists'][0]['name'],
        "popularity": song['track']['popularity'],
        "release_date": song['track']['album']['release_date']
    }
    my_songs = pd.concat([my_songs, pd.DataFrame(row, index=[0])], ignore_index=True)

    features = sp.audio_features(tracks=[song['track']['id']])[0]
    row = {
         "song_id": song['track']['id'],
        "energy": features['energy'],
        "liveness": features['liveness'],
        "tempo": features['tempo'],
        "speechiness": features['speechiness'],
        "acousticness": features['acousticness'],
        "instrumentalness": features['instrumentalness'],
        "danceability": features['danceability'],
        "duration_ms": features['duration_ms'],
        "loudness": features['loudness'],
        "valence": features['valence'],
        "mode": features['mode'],
        "key": features['key']
    }
    my_features = pd.concat([my_features, pd.DataFrame(row, index=[0])], ignore_index=True)

Merging song and feature dataframes

list_song_feature = pd.merge(my_songs, my_features, left_on='song_id', right_on='song_id', how='left')

Exporting to CSV file

list_song_feature.to_csv('playlist_New.csv', index=False)

Expected behavior
All 3 playlists should be fetched

First of all, please make sure to use a codeblock like this:

```python3
your code
```

Looking at your profile, I noticed one thing. The missing playlist is a collaborative playlist. Obviously this doesn't make much sense as the playlist is still public. I think it's a bug in Spotifys API and not in spotipy. Maybe somebody in the Spotify Community can help you with this.

I found this post which seems to describe the same problem: https://community.spotify.com/t5/Spotify-for-Developers/Get-User-s-Playlists-not-returning-quot-Old-Collaborative/m-p/5482577

thanks for the reply @dieser-niko , yes you are correct the playlist which is not getting returned is a collaborative playlist but since its public so it should get returned by the API call.
I have already raised an issue regarding the same at Spotify Community as well but haven't received any response from them yet.

I cross checked the issue on Spotify developer console as well
https://developer.spotify.com/documentation/web-api/reference/get-list-users-playlists?user_id=waggalishis&limit=50&offset=0 and the issue persists there as well.

If the issue is not caused by spotipy, then probably yes.

okay closing the issue as this is happening from the Spotify API endpoint.
