## spotify/artist

`GET /v1/spotify/artist`

One Spotify artist: followers, monthly listeners, world rank, top cities, biography and top tracks with play counts.

*Artist details*

| Parameter | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `id` | yes | Spotify artist id, from spotify/search. — e.g. `0cGUm45nv7Z6M6qdXYQGTX` |
| `dry_run` | no | Read a zero-credit estimate without fetching sources, running AI, or reserving credits. Cache status is a snapshot, not a guarantee at execution. — e.g. `1` |

**Cost:** 2 credits at list price per successful uncached response; variable-cost operations may quote or settle a different charge. Confirmed uncharged or refunded failures report zero. Pending reconciliation can report credits_used:null; retain request_id and the original idempotency key.
