How to get the sections for a mood or genre?

Question

Hi. Looks like YouTube Music handles moods and genres differently since clicking on one in the browser does not update the url. In other words it is not possible to share a link to a mood or genre. This seems to be related to the issue I'm having. Right now I'm attempting to call music.getInfo(navigationEndpoint) passing in the navigation endpoint for a specific mood, in this case "Chill". The request succeeds but all the props returned are undefined or empty. Cheers!

async function showGenreInfo(innertube: Innertube) {
  const browse_endpoint = new NavigationEndpoint({ browseEndpoint: { browseId: 'FEmusic_explore' } });
  const response = await browse_endpoint.call(innertube.actions, { client: 'YTMUSIC' })
  
  const page = Parser.parseResponse<IBrowseResponse>(response.data)
  const tab = page.contents?.item().as(SingleColumnBrowseResults).tabs.get({ selected: true })
  if (!tab) return
  
  const section_list = tab.content?.as(SectionList)
  if (!section_list) return
  
  const sections = section_list.contents.filterType(MusicCarouselShelf)
  const genre = sections.find(s => s.header?.title.text === "Moods & genres")
  if (!genre) return
  
  const chill = genre.contents.map(c => c as MusicNavigationButton).find(b => b.button_text === "Chill")
  if (!chill) return
  
  const info = await innertube.music.getInfo(chill.endpoint)
  console.log(info)
}
