${type === 'playlist' ? 'Playlist' : 'User'} not found

Error message

${type === 'playlist' ? 'Playlist' : 'User'} not found

What it means

Thrown (bare Error) by the Mixcloud route when the GraphQL lookup returns null/falsy data. callApi() returns response.data.data[<Type>Lookup]; a null result means Mixcloud's GraphQL found no user (or playlist) matching the supplied username/slug. The message distinguishes 'Playlist not found' from 'User not found' based on the type.

Solutions

1. Open https://www.mixcloud.com/<username>/ in a browser — a 404 means the username is wrong.
2. For playlists, confirm the slug from the playlist's real URL and that it belongs to the given username.
3. Reproduce the GraphQL request to https://app.mixcloud.com/graphql with the same query to confirm the null lookup.
4. If the user was renamed, find their current username and update the feed URL.

if (!data) {
    throw new Error(`${type === 'playlist' ? 'Playlist' : 'User'} '${username}' not found on Mixcloud.`);
}

function isMixcloudLookupResult(data: unknown): data is { displayName?: string; biog?: string; picture?: { urlRoot?: string } } {
    return !!data && typeof data === 'object';
}

When it happens

Trigger: The handler calls callApi(objectType, objectFields, username, playlistSlug); the GraphQL response's lookup field is null. Happens with a non-existent username, a typo, a deleted/renamed account, or a playlist slug that doesn't belong to that user.

Common situations: Username copied with wrong casing or extra characters; the user renamed their account; the playlist slug was guessed; Mixcloud's GraphQL shape changed so the lookup key no longer resolves.
