Response fields and example
This example is illustrative, not a captured live response. Variable-cost operations may settle a charge different from the list price below. A successful response puts the platform payload in data and reports the exact credits used, remaining balance, request id and cache status beside it.
{
"success": true,
"platform": "spotify",
"endpoint": "/v1/spotify/podcast",
"data": {
"id": "example",
"name": "Example podcast",
"kind": "show"
},
"credits_used": 1,
"credits_remaining": 99,
"request_id": "req_…",
"cached": false
}The example is illustrative and shows a documented subset of data. The fields below are optional across supported sources; nullable fields can also be absent. Preserve unknown values and accept additional fields.
Schema basis: reviewed response shaper. See schema coverage and validation limits.
Download the data JSON Schema. Validate response.data, not the whole envelope. A valid shape does not establish that every field or source record was returned.
| Field inside data | Type | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
id | string | null | Exact source identifier; preserve it as a string. |
name | string | null | name |
url | string | null | url |
uri | string | null | uri |
kind | string | null | kind |
description | string | null | description |
publisher | string | null | publisher |
image_url | string | null | image url |
rating | number | null | rating; null is unknown. |
ratings_count | number | null | ratings count; null is unknown. |
total_episodes | number | null | total episodes; null is unknown. |
languages | array | Nested response fields; optional unless explicitly documented. |
topics | array | Nested response fields; optional unless explicitly documented. |
topics[].title | string | null | title |
topics[].uri | string | null | uri |
explicit | boolean | null | Explicit-content label. |
Failures use the typed error envelope. A confirmed uncharged or refunded failure reports zero; a pending reconciliation can report an unknown charge. Read credits_used and error.details.billing_status, and keep request_id for recovery. Response contract · Error reference
