## Response `200`

A user

- PublicUserObject

  - `external_urls` ExternalUrlObject
    - `spotify` string — The [Spotify URL](/documentation/web-api/#spotify-uris-and-ids) for the object.
  - `followers` FollowersObject
    - `href` string, nullable — This will always be set to null, as the Web API does not support it at the moment.
    - `total` integer — The total number of followers.
  - `href` string — A link to the Web API endpoint for this user.
  - `id` string — The [Spotify user ID](/documentation/web-api/#spotify-uris-and-ids) for this user.
  - `images` ImageObject[] — The user's profile image.
    - `height` integer, nullable, required — The image height in pixels.

## Other responses

- `401` — Bad or expired token. This can happen if the user revoked a token or the access token has expired. You should re-authenticate the user.
- `403` — Bad OAuth request (wrong consumer key, bad nonce, expired timestamp...). Unfortunately, re-authenticating the user won't help here.
- `429` — The app has exceeded its rate limits.
