FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers about access, pricing, limits, and endpoints.
How do I access the Spotify API?
Three options: run the Apify actor with no API key (pay per result), subscribe on RapidAPI for a RapidAPI key from $0/month, or buy a reusable direct key at spotify-sub.checkleaked.com from $9/month for 20K requests.
Is there a free tier?
Yes. RapidAPI Basic plan is free forever with 1,000 requests per month. Apify provides free platform credits on signup.
Do I need OAuth to use the Spotify API?
No. Apify Actor runs require no API key. RapidAPI and Direct integrations use a single API key, with no OAuth flow or token refresh.
How many endpoints are available?
109 endpoints across 25 groups, covering tracks, artists, albums, playlists, lyrics, credits, charts, podcasts, audiobooks, concerts, users, downloads, AI analysis and playlist generation.
What is the rate limit?
RapidAPI plans are 5 requests per second. Direct Portal plans are 10 requests per second. Apify runs are throttled per-run with no fixed per-second limit.
Can I download track audio?
Yes. The /download_track endpoint returns a YouTube-sourced m4a audio file plus the Spotify 30-second preview URL.
Is the data real-time?
Track, artist, album and playlist data is fetched from Spotify on request, so a response reflects the catalogue at the moment you call. Charts refresh daily.
Which platform is cheapest?
It depends on volume. At 20,000 requests a month the Direct Portal is $9 against RapidAPI's $10; at 200,000 it is $27 against $30; above that the Direct Portal scales to 5M requests at $675 while RapidAPI's unlimited plan is $200. Apify bills per result, so it wins for intermittent or scheduled jobs. RapidAPI Basic is the cheapest entry point at $0 for 1,000 requests a month.
Can I get Spotify track lyrics?
Yes. The /track_lyrics endpoint returns line-by-line lyrics with timing metadata when available.
Does this work with any programming language?
Yes. It is a standard REST/JSON API. Works with Node.js, Python, Go, Rust, PHP, Ruby, Java, .NET — any HTTP client.
Migrating from the official Web API? The endpoints Spotify deprecated, and the call that answers here. Wondering about the missing login step? Why this API needs no OAuth.
