Originally created by @AsukoRin on GitHub (Oct 6, 2023).
Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/sigma67/ytmusicapi/issues/450

ytmusic = ytmusicapi.YTMusic(os.environ["browserjson"]) history = ytmusic.get_history() last_listened_song = history[0] if history else {}

history = ytmusic.get_history() gives a KeyError: 'setVideoId' even though it isn't editing or moving playlist items. A couple days ago the code worked normally with no errors and now it doesn't. I have tried to refresh the browser.json file (firefox) and object is created correctly:
<ytmusicapi.ytmusic.YTMusic object at 0x7fd50a96ea10>
However code still gives a key error, occasionally changing to Error: 'none'

Larger Snippet:
def get_last_listened_song(): global last_listened_song while True: try: history = ytmusic.get_history() print(history) last_listened_song = history[0] if history else {} print('done') time.sleep(5) except Exception as e: print("Error:", str(e))

My first time writing a bug report so sorry if I did something wrong :p

It seems about the same, but there might have been some small change that I haven't noticed. I am still signed in as well

Same here too, the following stopped working with the exact same error

import os
import json
from http.server import BaseHTTPRequestHandler
from ytmusicapi import YTMusic, setup

auth = setup(headers_raw=os.environ['YTMUSIC_HEADERS_RAW'])
ytmusic = YTMusic(auth)


class handler(BaseHTTPRequestHandler):
    def do_GET(self):
        self.send_response(200)
        self.send_header('Content-type', 'application/json')
        self.end_headers()
        first_history = ytmusic.get_history()[0]
        message = {
            'videoId': first_history['videoId'],
            'title': first_history['title'],
            'artists': first_history['artists']
        }
        self.wfile.write(json.dumps(message).encode())
        return

setVideoId = menu_service['playlistEditEndpoint']['actions'][0][
KeyError: 'setVideoId'

Web UI of YouTube Music history page looks the same.

Without any changes to the code, it suddenly works again at least from today.
