Request

curl https://api.unifapi.com/apple-music/tracks/{id} \

idpathrequired: Apple Music song id (the `i` parameter of a song link).
: The parameter for this Apple Music operation. Use the URL-visible slug or id described in the docs.

Overview

This operation is part of the Apple Music API in the music category. It uses the same Bearer token, request tracing, error model, and billing envelope as every UnifAPI endpoint, so agents can switch between platforms without custom per-vendor glue code.

Use it when a workflow needs Apple Music public data alongside other music catalogs, but should still keep one API key, one account balance, and one predictable JSON contract.

Common agent workflows

Look up public Apple Music data for agents that need reliable open-web context.
Give an AI agent a stable Apple Music data source without building a per-platform integration.
Normalize Apple Music responses into the same UnifAPI envelope used across the catalog.

Response shape

Unified envelope, platform-native fields

Lookup responses return one canonical object in `data` with stable identifiers, source URLs where available, and platform-specific metadata normalized into predictable JSON.
The operation has a 3 credits ($0.003) minimum charge, so `billing.records_charged` can be higher than the visible records returned.
A not-found or invalid-input condition uses the unified UnifAPI error shape, so callers do not need special handling for each source platform.

Billing

This operation charges 1 credit per billable record, with a 3 credits ($0.003) operation minimum. Public responses include billing metadata with credits charged, records charged, and remaining workspace balance. Incorrect Credit deductions caused by platform failures can be restored as billing corrections.

Errors and retries

Authentication, validation, rate-limit, not-found, and provider errors use the unified UnifAPI error format. Agents should log `request_id`, retry only retryable failures, and treat invalid API keys, disabled keys, and expired keys as the same public `unauthorized` error type.
