SpotipieException

Reference

exception spotipie.exceptions.SpotipieException

Bases: Exception

exception spotipie.exceptions.HttpError(response)

Bases: spotipie.exceptions.SpotipieException

Error during HTTP request. It has a response attribute.

exception spotipie.exceptions.InsufficientScope(needed_scope, current_scope)

Bases: spotipie.exceptions.SpotipieException

Raised when Spotipie catches that the scope of the session is not sufficient to carry out an API request before the actual request is made.

# Important notice

Please, note that not all the errors caused by insufficient scope can be caught before a request is made: when this check is not possible and the scope is insufficient, an :class:~spotipie.errors.HttpError` is raised instead. So, make sure you include HttpError in your try-except block whenever you want to catch insufficient scope errors.

This class is here to provide you a better feedback than HttpError when this is possible.

exception spotipie.exceptions.ResourceTypeMismatch(expected_type, actual_type)

Bases: spotipie.exceptions.SpotipieException

Note: “type” here doesn’t refer to a Python type but to the type of a Python resource returned by Spotify API as a dictionary (contained in the “type” attribute of the dict).
