Current Behavior

In the tutorial it says sp_key as the second value, but in my case this value was "__secure-TPASESSION" and not "sp_key" like tutorial said.

Expected Behavior

1. expected "sp_key" to be located in my cookie session.
2. Or that the tutorial would suggest "__Secure-TPASESSION" as a alternative.

Steps to reproduce

1. I opened the app
2. went trough the Spotify connect tutorial
3. Saw that i needed "sp_dc" and "sp_key".
4. Realized that "sp_key" must have been renamed by Spotify to "__Secure-TPASESSION" (Or this could be becaus i use Google SSO).
5. Pressed "Connect" And it all worked out just fine.

Operating System

Windows

Spotube version

v3.1.2

Installation source

Website (spotube.netlify.app) or (spotube.krtirtho.dev)

Additional information

"sp_key" or "__Secure-TPASESSION" in tutorial as this obviously was the case here. See attached picture (Sensitive data hidden).

Interesting

Interestingly enough for both my kids it was something else, for one it was sp_key and for the other kid it was sp_gaid, so i suppose this is the third option of them 🤔

[KRTirtho]

Yeah, thanks for the suggestion. Does the account with Google SSO work in mobile as well?

[mattish91]

Actually yes

Today the account had been logged out from my browser session and i had to log out and in again in order to get the connection working, but now i did have both sp_dc and sp_key, just tought i'd let you know with some kind of update in this thread. :) Still working fine with Google SSO tho :)

Hello, I have installed the Windows version of Spotube v3.4.0 but when I try to log in with my Spotify account by pasting the values of sp_dc and sp_key and try to log in I am getting this error:

HandshakeException: Handshake error in client (OS Error: 
	CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED: unable to get local issuer certificate(../../third_party/boringssl/src/ssl/handshake.cc:393))

@AleJavierHY Follow #905

Also update your Windows. It's generally outdated certificates.

@mattish91 so I discovered that sp_key or sp_gaid is not even necessary so if you even put "lmao" for sp_key field, it'll work. The sp_dc is the only required one. And it must not be shared with anyone as it's top secret.

I've removed the sp_key field in the Nightly version and there should be no more confusion in the upcoming versions.
