Why isn't your music live on Spotify anymore?

Have you sent a takedown?

If we receive a takedown request, Spotify will remove the content.

1. Check the DELIVERIES tab in Spotify for Music Providers to view the most recent XML and see if a takedown, Delete, or End Date was delivered.

2. Check the most recent XML update to see if it is missing deal terms, or has updated restrictions.

If you sent a takedown, send an update reinstating track-level rights to make the release available. 

Have you sent the track-level rights?

Check the AVAILABILITY section in Spotify for Music Providers. If the dates in ACTIVE and DELIVERED are the same, it’s likely we never received the rights. Send an update reinstating track-level rights to make the release available.

Once you reinstate track-level rights, the music should be live within 2 business days. If it isn’t, or this doesn’t help, reach out to the Spotify Content Provider Operations team.
