Libspotify: There was an error generating your application key

Question

I have a premium Spotify account and I am trying to generate an application key to use with libspotify. I am doing this using the form here: https://developer.spotify.com/technologies/libspotify/request-key/, but the generation of the key always fails with a message "There was an error generating your application key".

I tried formatting my application name differently (e.g., spaces, no spaces, no dashes, etc), but the outcome is still the same.

Not sure if it's of any relevance, but I am logged in through facebook and my user name on the application form is shown as a number.

Is it possible that there is something wrong with my account ?

Thanks in advance, -Kal.

Answer 1

I suspect that something is up with the API key registration page. I've filed an internal bug report with the team that maintains that (I work at Spotify), and hopefully it'll be up and running soon! I'll update this answer if it turns out to be something other than that.

Edit: The error was on Spotify's website, everything seems to be working again.
