Apple music Playlists not appearing in search results as the did before

In the past few days I cannot get results when I search for an artist under Playlists.

Ex: Peter Gabriel under Playlist used to give me results like “Peter Gabriel essentiels...” and many more now I get one result.

 

Same is happening on iphone, ipad and windows.

Signed in to the community to post about having the same issue. Just like you though I was searching for “Alabama Shakes” with the search field pulling it’s results from Apple Music; the “Playlists” tab yields no results where in the past you would see the “Alabama Shakes Essentials” playlists that Apple Music had compiled. Not sure if this is an Apple Music issue or a Sonos issue.

Hi guys,

Same issue here. I don’t seem to get any of the Apple Music curated playlists showing up in search results. I do get some results, as you mention, but they seem to be playlists created by private Apple Music users.

Since Sonos hasn’t made any changes, have you checked with Apple? Sonos would only display what Apple sends to them.

I am having the same issue and the problem is not with apple.  If you search in playlist for “Apple Music” then the playlists are there albeit in a random order and you can easily play from them, they are just not showing up in specific search results...

The playlists still show up in my recently played section but nothing happens when I click them.

Hi folks, we’re currently investigating an issue causing Apple’s curated playlists to not show in searches. I’ll update this thread when we have more to share. In the meantime you can get access to those playlists by adding them to “my music” in the Apple Music app. Then you can find them in the Sonos app under My Music > Playlists > Apple Playlists.

So, if you sent along a diagnostic, as requested, you should post the number here.
