fix(backend): artist suggestions 503 not 500 on upstream timeout - #1787
Conversation
…tions Fixes intermittent 500 errors in GET /api/artists/suggestions that occur when the suggestions service experiences upstream provider timeouts. Root cause: service handlers threw plain objects instead of AppError instances, causing the error middleware to treat them as unhandled errors and captureException them, resulting in 500 + alert noise instead of graceful 503. Changes: - Import AppError in artistSuggestion.ts - Replace all plain object throws with AppError instances - Wrap getSuggestions call in try-catch to convert unexpected errors to 503 - Log warnings (not exceptions) for expected unavailability per issue #1657 - Update tests to check for AppError instances and correct status codes Result: upstream timeouts now return 503 "Artist suggestions temporarily unavailable" consistently, without triggering captureException alert noise. Closes #1781

Requires human review: Refactors error handling in the artist suggestions backend across multiple endpoints, replacing throws with AppError and a try-catch. It's a logic change that could cause subtle breakages and needs human review.

Summary
Fixes intermittent 500 errors in GET /api/artists/suggestions that occur when the suggestions service experiences upstream provider timeouts (~5s latency → Spotify API slow/unavailable).
Root Cause
Service handlers threw plain objects
{ status, error }instead ofAppErrorinstances. When these reached the error middleware, they were treated as unhandled errors →captureException()+ 500, instead of graceful 503. Result: 12 false-positive alert instances in LUCKY-35 (Sentry), regressed at v2.34.0.Fix
AppErrorinstances inArtistSuggestionServicegetSuggestions()call in try-catch to convert unexpected errors to 503 (service unavailable)Testing
AppErrorinstances + correctstatusCodefieldsResult: upstream timeouts now consistently return 503 without triggering captureException.
Closes #1781
Summary by cubic
Return 503 Service Unavailable (not 500) from artist suggestions when Spotify times out, preventing false alerts and aligning with #1781. Uses AppError for consistent statuses and captures only unexpected errors before returning 503.
