--- title: "Get Recommendations" method: GET path: "/recommendations" tags: ["Tracks"] --- # Get Recommendations `GET /recommendations` Recommendations are generated based on the available information for a given seed entity and matched against similar artists and tracks. If there is sufficient information about the provided seeds, a list of tracks will be returned together with pool size details. For artists and tracks that are very new or obscure there might not be enough data to generate a list of tracks. ## Query parameters - `limit` integer — The target size of the list of recommended tracks. For seeds with unusually small pools or when highly restrictive filtering is applied, it may be impossible to generate the requested number of recommended tracks. Debugging information for such cases is available in the response. Default: 20\. Minimum: 1\. Maximum: 100. - `market` string — An [ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-1_alpha-2). If a country code is specified, only content that is available in that market will be returned.
If a valid user access token is specified in the request header, the country associated with the user account will take priority over this parameter.
_**Note**: If neither market or user country are provided, the content is considered unavailable for the client._
Users can view the country that is associated with their account in the [account settings](https://www.spotify.com/se/account/overview/). - `seed_artists` string — A comma separated list of [Spotify IDs](/documentation/web-api/#spotify-uris-and-ids) for seed artists.

The popularity of a track is a value between 0 and 100, with 100 being the most popular. The popularity is calculated by algorithm and is based, in the most part, on the total number of plays the track has had and how recent those plays are.
Generally speaking, songs that are being played a lot now will have a higher popularity than songs that were played a lot in the past. Duplicate tracks (e.g. the same track from a single and an album) are rated independently. Artist and album popularity is derived mathematically from track popularity. _**Note**: the popularity value may lag actual popularity by a few days: the value is not updated in real time._ - `preview_url` string — A link to a 30 second preview (MP3 format) of the track. Can be `null` - `restrictions` TrackRestrictionObject - `reason` string — The reason for the restriction. Supported values: - `market` - The content item is not available in the given market. - `product` - The content item is not available for the user's subscription type. - `explicit` - The content item is explicit and the user's account is set to not play explicit content. Additional reasons may be added in the future. **Note**: If you use this field, make sure that your application safely handles unknown values. - `track_number` integer — The number of the track. If an album has several discs, the track number is the number on the specified disc. - `type` 'track' — The object type: "track". - `uri` string — The [Spotify URI](/documentation/web-api/#spotify-uris-and-ids) for the track. ## 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. --- [API](https://skmtc.net/spotify/apis/sonallux.md) · [All operations](https://skmtc.net/spotify/apis/sonallux/llms.txt) · [OpenAPI document](https://skmtc-service-staging.skmtc.workers.dev/v1/apis/spotify/sonallux/revisions/1459b27f2e48/schema)
