I am creating a music app using Spotify APIS. I want to list artists from Spotify without using any IDs.
if we have any id then we can fetch artist details.
link:GET https://api.spotify.com/v1/artists/{id}
If there are multiple artists IDS.
link: GET https://api.spotify.com/v1/artists
Are there any options to get Spotify artist details without using any IDS?
You can Search for Artists on Spotify using Search for an Item and select the artist type then you just need the name of the artist, you'll then get the basic artist information, along with their Id which you could use in other calles to get information about that Artist from Spotify

I am trying to build a kind of a clone of Instagram, where you have a search field and you can type a user name and display the user profile and media, I know that you can search for a user by ID but how can I get the ID by user name? And also in the documentation, there is no mention of how can I get the number of likes
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/instagram-basic-display-api/reference/user/media#reading
So far I've been querying Instagram successfully on for my own media and there is no mention of the likes on the pictures.
`https://graph.instagram.com/me/media?fields=id,media_type,media_url,username,caption&access_token=${process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_INSTA_USER_TOKEN}`
Is it possible to query Instagram API by the username to get the media with the number of likes?
Thanks
my question
is possible get a user id in any way? I would search a user from his name and print his recently artist played
Thanks
This is not possible due to Spotify's Web API has no endpoint where you can fetch user ids by their names.
What you can do is creating an application where a specific user can login using Spotify. Afterwards you can use this endpoint in order to retrieve the recently played tracks of that exact user. The track object in the response will hold the artist as well.
I am thinking of doing a web app that uses keywords to query Spotify web API for public user playlists, and then do an online mashup with my own music retrieval system. Is it allowed? Can the playlist names and tracks be cached for the purpose of categorization.
I read through the Terms of Use and saw this:
"Do not improperly access, alter or store the Spotify Service or Spotify Content, including (i) using any robot, spider, site search/retrieval application, or other tool to retrieve, duplicate, or index any portion of the Spotify Service or Spotify Content (which includes playlist data) or collect information about Spotify users for any unauthorized purpose;"
Paul Lamere does something similar with Playlist Miner: https://github.com/plamere/playlistminer. But he is an EchoNest employee.
There are endpoints for Artist, Album and Track. Playlist is missing. How do I search for a playlist?
Such endpoint is not available at this time.
Is it possible to get the userid of the person who added a track to a collaborative playlist within the Spotify Apps API?
In short — no. The Apps API exposes no usernames at all at this time.
