7digital API

API

Access 7digital's music catalog and store functionality via RESTful API

Overview

The 7digital API provides RESTful endpoints to interact with its commercial music store and extensive catalog. Key endpoints include searching/browsing artists, albums, tracks, and genres; retrieving detailed metadata (artwork, pricing, release dates); and managing digital music purchases/licenses. Responses are JSON-formatted. Use cases include building custom music apps, integrating catalogs into media platforms, creating branded storefronts, or accessing user-specific music libraries (with authentication). Ideal for developers needing legal access to a curated music library for commercial or consumer applications.
