Apple Music API

The Apple Music API is Apple's REST surface for Apple Music catalog, library, ratings, playlists, recommendations, and search. Calls are authenticated with a developer token (JWT) and, when accessing a subscriber's personal data, an additional Music User Token obtained through MusicKit on the device. It powers Apple Music integrations in iOS apps and on the web.

Apple Music API is one of 8 APIs that iOS publishes on the APIs.io network.

Tagged areas include Apple Music, Music, Catalog, Streaming, and MusicKit. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes API documentation, an API reference, and authentication docs.
