The data

SoundCloud data,
ready to work with.

SoundCloud is organised around artists and the audio they publish. A recorded Chillhop Music artist response gives the source handle, profile URL, verification state and dated counts for followers, tracks and playlists. Those totals describe the profile at collection time; they are not a downloaded catalogue or private audience report. Use artist-tracks to request a window of uploads and its continuation, then open a selected track for its own metadata and public activity. Keeping the track URL and collection date with each observation makes release watches and catalogue checks easier to audit when an artist updates a title or uploads new audio.

Comparing providers for SoundCloud data?
Music data APIs compared

Does an artist response include every SoundCloud track?

No. It reports a track count. Request artist-tracks separately and follow only the continuation returned for that account.

Are follower and play counts live analytics?

No. They are public values observed when each response was collected; private listener analytics are not included.

What SoundCloud operations can I use?

The catalogue shows 3 currently available operations with their individual prices. Open an endpoint for its accepted inputs, returned fields and limitations.

How much does the SoundCloud API cost?

Start with 150 free credits. Paid subscriptions start at $29 per month for 10,000 credits, before applicable tax. Each operation has its own price. Check the endpoint reference for variable charges. Compare plans

How do I authenticate requests?

Use your Monocrawl API key in the x-api-key header. The endpoint reference lists any additional inputs needed for the operation. Authentication guide

What request limits apply?

Limits depend on your Monocrawl plan. The Free account ceiling is 600 requests per minute and 50 simultaneous requests. Endpoint capacity and Free daily protections also apply; these ceilings do not guarantee source throughput. Read the limits guide

What should I know about SoundCloud coverage?

A profile track count is not a downloaded discography; artist-tracks returns a window with its own continuation. Follower and play counts are public observations at collection time, not audience demographics or private analytics.
