Making calls to Spotify REST API blocks main thread

Question

I am making calls to the Spotify REST API https://developer.spotify.com/web-api/ to play/pause playback using this C# wrapper https://github.com/JohnnyCrazy/SpotifyAPI-NET

When I make the calls it blocks the main thread. I have tried putting the calls in co-routines, or using separate threads for them, but neither seem to work. Heres an example of a call to resume playback

  public void resumePlayback(){
     ErrorResponse error = _spotify.ResumePlayback(context.Device.Id);
 }

Thanks in advance

@johnm212 Would you be open to sharing your implementation of that wrapper into Unity? I've been hacking at it but having some trouble.

It would be better using a Rest Client to call the endpoints of any API, try this approach using Promises to handle issues in a better way too => https://github.com/proyecto26/RestClient
