Response behavior

- Invalid `chart` or `region` values return `400`. - `top-podcasts`, `top-episodes`, and `trending` support all listed regions. Category charts support `au`, `br`, `de`, `gb`, `mx`, `se`, and `us`. - `top-episodes` items include episode fields plus the parent show fields when Spotify returns them. - Upstream chart failures return `502`. - `items[].rank` is assigned from the upstream array order. Example response: ```json { "code": 200, "msg": "OK", "data": { "chart": "religion-spirituality", "chartName": "Religion & Spirituality", "chartType": "category", "region": "us", "regionName": "United States", "limit": 100, "items": [ { "rank": 1, "uri": "spotify:show:4Pppt42NPK2XzKwNIoW7BR", "rankMove": "UNCHANGED", "name": "The Bible in a Year (with Fr. Mike Schmitz)", "publisher": "Ascension", "imageUrl": "https://i.scdn.co/image/example", "description": "A podcast description.", "externalUrl": "https://open.spotify.com/show/4Pppt42NPK2XzKwNIoW7BR" } ], "meta": { "sourceUrl": "https://podcastcharts.byspotify.com/api/charts/religion-spirituality?limit=100&region=us", "count": 1, "fetchedAt": "2026-05-13T15:22:41Z" } } } ```

Error behavior

Crawlora does not silently return bad data when the upstream page cannot be used.

Status	Common failure case
400	Invalid input or missing required parameter
429	Plan or endpoint rate limit exceeded
500	Internal execution error
502	Upstream platform failed, returned unusable HTML, or served a challenge page that could not be resolved

When possible, Crawlora returns structured error context so your integration can retry, back off, or inspect the request.
