## spotify/search

`GET /v1/spotify/search`

Search the Spotify catalog: matching artists, tracks, albums and playlists with ids and links.

*Catalog search*

| Parameter | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `query` | yes | Artist, track, album or playlist name. — e.g. `daft punk` |
| `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.

```bash
curl "https://www.monocrawl.com/v1/spotify/search?query=daft%20punk" \
  -H "x-api-key: mn_your_key_here"
```
