Web API Changelog - July 2026

Overview

This page documents changes to the Spotify Web API made in July 2026.

App limits

App limit increased

[CHANGED] Client IDs per developer — Increased from 1 to 25. Developers can now create up to 25 apps per account.

Quota and rate limiting

Per-account quota counting

API quotas for development mode are now counted per developer account rather than per Client ID. If you have multiple Client IDs in development mode, they will share the same quota buckets.

429 error response for exceeded quota

When a user's quota has been exceeded, the 429 Too Many Requests response now contains the following body:


_10{
_10    "error": {
_10        "status": 429,
_10        "message": "Too many requests",
_10        "reason": "QUOTA_EXCEEDED"
_10    }
_10}
