How health is measured
- Health = the share of calls that returned data, in percent. Empty results, failures and unknown outcomes do not count as returning data.
- Levels: 90% and above is healthy, 70% and above is available, 40% and above is limited; anything lower is mostly down.
- A period (the last 24 hours, one hour or one day) gets a score only once it has at least 50 calls. Periods with fewer calls show as normal: a few failures among a handful of calls do not mean the API is down.
- Calls include real customer calls and our own daily probe calls. Request errors (wrong parameters, no balance) are excluded.
- Average time counts only calls that completed normally: response time for sync calls, acceptance to completion for async ones.

Retrieve public artist details from Spotify. Accepts these parameters: url. Returns these fields: name, genres, top_tracks, and single_count.
Price $1.39 per 1,000 requests ($0.001389 per call). Failed calls and empty results are not charged. Synchronous. For slow jobs add "mode": "async" to the body, take the job_id and poll.
Request parameters
| Name | In | Type | Required | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Authorization | header | string | Yes | - | Bearer followed by your API key. Create it in the console; never put it in a URL or a code repository. |
platform | body | string | Yes | spotify | Platform identifier, fixed value. |
action | body | string | Yes | artist | Capability identifier, fixed value. |
url | body.params | Not declared | Yes | - | Specifies the target open.spotify.com link, spotify:type:ID URI, or raw entity ID corresponding to the chosen action (artist, track, album, or playlist). Input types must match the endpoint action and cannot be interchanged. Legacy profile endpoints accept full Spotify links to return album and single streaming metadata rather than user profile account details. |

}Response fields
Business data is in results. The table lists the fields a record can contain; values the source does not provide are never made up.
| Field | Meaning |
|---|---|
id | The record's unique ID on the source platform. Unique only within one platform; IDs can repeat across platforms. |
url | Link to the record on the source platform. |
name | Name of the object itself, for account, product and business capabilities. |
bio | Profile bio written by the account; may contain line breaks and emoji. |
monthly_listener_count | Keeps the platform's own meaning |
follower_count | Followers. null means not disclosed, not 0. |
world_rank | Keeps the platform's own meaning |
genres | Keeps the platform's own meaning |
image_url | Image link. Capabilities with several images may return an image_urls array. |
header_image_url | Keeps the platform's own meaning |
album_count | Keeps the platform's own meaning |
single_count | Keeps the platform's own meaning |
compilation_count | Keeps the platform's own meaning |
top_cities | Keeps the platform's own meaning |
top_tracks | Keeps the platform's own meaning |
related_artists | Keeps the platform's own meaning |
platform | Source platform identifier, the same as platform in the request (for example xiaohongshu, tiktok). |
Errors and billing
- 401
- Missing or invalid key. Authentication runs before parameter checks, so unauthenticated requests never see the parameter schema.
- 422
- Wrong parameter name or value. The error lists the parameters and allowed values this capability accepts and the closest match; it happens before any charge.
- 402
- Insufficient balance. Top up first.
- 429
- Per-minute request limit reached. Wait for Retry-After and try again.
- 503
- Could not complete right now. Any charge for the call goes back to your balance automatically, and the billing receipt in the response states the actual outcome, including when it is not yet known. Do not resend blindly.
- 200 empty
- The request completed without data and is not charged (billing.reason = empty_result_refunded).

- Spotify: Monthly Listeners vs. Monthly Active Listeners Metrics ↗
Spotify defines monthly listeners as unique listeners over the past 28 days across both active streams and algorithmic recommendations. Monthly active listeners represent only the active listening subset. The `monthly_listener_count` field on this page must not be interpreted as this active subset, play counts, or follower totals.
