(Last.fm &amp; Spotify)]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p dir="auto">Hello, sorry if this is a very smooth-brained post, but I'm very confused by the changes in the latest update.<br />
I use authentication for <a href="http://last.fm" rel="nofollow ugc">last.fm</a> and Spotify, and have been logged out of both due to the changes, and can't figure out what to put in the Client ID and Client secret fields.</p>
<p dir="auto">Separating this by <a href="http://last.fm" rel="nofollow ugc">last.fm</a> issues and Spotify issues:</p>
<p dir="auto"><strong><a href="http://Last.fm" rel="nofollow ugc">Last.fm</a></strong><br />
I've tried putting my email/username into the Client ID field and my password in the Client secret field, but the webpage I get sent to shows this:<br />
<img src="/assets/uploads/files/1788859287917-db8e99ce-64b6-435e-9bf5-0321669b07ae-image.png" alt="db8e99ce-64b6-435e-9bf5-0321669b07ae-image.png" class=" img-fluid img-markdown" /><br />
The URL in this specific instance is <a href="https://www.last.fm/api/auth?api_key=username&amp;cb=http://localhost:45305/" rel="nofollow ugc">https://www.last.fm/api/auth?api_key=username&amp;cb=http://localhost:45305/</a> - is this the intended behaviour?<br />
(note: running Strawberry via CLI with <code>strawberry --verbose</code> shows no errors, warnings or any other kind of feedback in this instance.)</p>
<p dir="auto"><strong>Spotify</strong><br />
No matter what I put into the Client ID and Client secret fields, it always returns</p>
<pre><code>ERROR SpotifyService:259               "Missing Spotify client ID and/or client secret"
</code></pre>
<p dir="auto">and I am never redirected to the Spotify website.</p>
<p dir="auto">If there's an API key I need to fish out from somewhere and put in these fields, please let me know because the services themselves don't show me anything (unless I'm just real bad at searching :^) )<br />
Strawberry is my music player of choice for both local and streamed tracks, so I'm very happy to help troubleshoot any issues and get the whole setup working again! Thank you for your continued hard work on this wonderful music player. ^^</p>

<p dir="auto">Additional edit:<br />
I just noticed that there's a place to log in for Genius too, so I tried that and also get a webpage saying "Invalid Authorization". The URL is <a href="https://api.genius.com/oauth/authorize?client_id=username&amp;code_challenge=LW6f0eupn2UFYo47mgoaIidHdcLlqC8--LGQVnxy44Q&amp;code_challenge_method=S256&amp;redirect_uri=https%3A%2F%2Foauth.strawberrymusicplayer.org%2F&amp;response_type=code&amp;scope=me&amp;state=qwx1CBcGJHvPC6wtoXjhLRSbsvZEVIpM-36917" rel="nofollow ugc">https://api.genius.com/oauth/authorize?client_id=username&amp;code_challenge=LW6f0eupn2UFYo47mgoaIidHdcLlqC8--LGQVnxy44Q&amp;code_challenge_method=S256&amp;redirect_uri=https%3A%2F%2Foauth.strawberrymusicplayer.org%2F&amp;response_type=code&amp;scope=me&amp;state=qwx1CBcGJHvPC6wtoXjhLRSbsvZEVIpM-36917</a></p>
<p dir="auto">If this is something I should add as an issue in the GitHub repo, let me know and I'm happy to open an issue there too <img src="https://forum.strawberrymusicplayer.org/assets/plugins/nodebb-plugin-emoji/emoji/android/1f642.png?v=faqqna7874c" class="not-responsive emoji emoji-android emoji--slightly_smiling_face" style="height:23px;width:auto;vertical-align:middle" title=":)" alt="🙂" /></p>
