NetEase Cloud Music Playlist API

Q: How do I read what listeners say about a track?

Pass the track's track_id as the song ID to the NetEase Cloud Music Comments capability, which also accepts a song link containing song?id=. Comments are read one song at a time, and a playlist ID cannot stand in for the song ID there.

List the tracks of a NetEase Cloud Music playlist in order, from its playlist_id or link, with artists, album, duration and release date for each. Duration is in milliseconds, and a listed track is not guaranteed to be playable in every region.

NetEase Cloud Music Playlist reads one public playlist by playlist_id and returns a row for each track: its position, name and alias, artists, album, length, release time, explicit flag and song link, with the playlist's name, type, cover, track count, play count, saves and last update repeated on every row. Use it to see what a curated or user-made list contains and how much attention the list gets, for playlist pitching, music marketing, catalog research or tracking which songs win placements.

Pass the numeric ID or a playlist link that contains playlist?id= or /playlist/<ID>. duration_ms is in milliseconds, so divide by 1000 for seconds. playlist_play_count counts plays of the whole playlist, not of any one track, and track_alias holds a subtitle or foreign-language title when the song has one. snapshotted_at records when each row was read.

Price $0.56 per 1,000 requests ($0.000556 per call). Failed calls and empty results are not charged. Synchronous. For slow jobs add "mode": "async" to the body, take the job_id and poll.

AI prompt

Paste this into your AI assistant. It already holds this endpoint's parameters, response fields and an example request, so the assistant can ask what you need and then write the scraper.

Please help me write a data collection script with the EveryInfra NetEase Cloud Music Playlist endpoint (netease_music/playlist).

Endpoint contract:
- Request: POST https://api.everyinfra.com/api/v1/social with the header Authorization: Bearer <API key>. Read the key from the EVERYINFRA_API_KEY environment variable and never hard-code it.
- In the request body, set platform to netease_music and action to playlist, and put the parameters inside params.
- Required parameters:
  - playlist_id: Specifies the NetEase Cloud Music playlist ID for the playlist action. Accepts either a numeric playlist ID or a URL containing playlist?id= or /playlist/ID.
- Optional parameters:
  - limit: The most rows to return in this call, an integer from 1 to 100. The default applies when you leave it out, and a call can return fewer rows. Larger values return 422 before any charge. (default: 20)
- Returns a list of records. Main fields of each record: rank, track_id, track_name, track_alias, duration_ms, artists, artist_ids, album_id, album_name, album_cover_url, published_at, is_explicit; 23 fields in total, full list at https://api.everyinfra.com/api/v1/social/catalog?platform=netease_music.
- Example request body:
{
  "platform": "netease_music",
  "action": "playlist",
  "params": {
    "playlist_id": "3778678"
  }
}
- Price: $0.56 per 1,000 requests; failed and empty results are not charged.
- For dozens or hundreds of targets, add "mode": "async" to the body: you get a job_id at once and poll GET https://api.everyinfra.com/api/v1/jobs/{job_id} for the result.
- On 422, fix the request using the suggested parameter names and allowed values in the error; on 429 or 503, wait for Retry-After and try again.

Before writing code, ask me which targets I need, how many, which fields, and what output format I want; then confirm the plan and the rough cost with me.

FAQ

Where do I find the `playlist_id`?

Open the playlist in a browser and look at its link: the number after playlist?id= or after /playlist/ is the ID. You can pass that number or the whole link. Do not pass a song ID; songs and playlists are numbered separately, and a song ID will not find the list.

Is `popularity_score` a play count?

No. It is NetEase's own heat score on a scale from 0 to 100, useful for ranking the tracks in a list against each other. For the attention the list itself gets, read playlist_play_count and playlist_subscribed_count, the number of users who saved it.

How do I read what listeners say about a track?

Pass the track's track_id as the song ID to the NetEase Cloud Music Comments capability, which also accepts a song link containing song?id=. Comments are read one song at a time, and a playlist ID cannot stand in for the song ID there.

Errors and billing

401: Missing or invalid key. Authentication runs before parameter checks, so unauthenticated requests never see the parameter schema.
422: Wrong parameter name or value. The error lists the parameters and allowed values this capability accepts and the closest match; it happens before any charge.
402: Insufficient balance. Top up first.
429: The account's per-minute request limit was reached (all of its API keys count together; a key's own lower limit applies first). Wait for Retry-After and try again; a rate package in the console raises the limit.
503: Could not complete right now. Any charge for the call goes back to your balance automatically, and the billing receipt in the response states the actual outcome, including when it is not yet known. Do not resend blindly.
200 empty: The request completed without data and is not charged (billing.reason = empty_result_refunded).

NetEase Cloud Music: Chart Containers and Internal Song Links ↗
The official NetEase Cloud Music chart page separates charts from song lists, with each track using its own `song?id=` link. Here, `playlist_id` targets a playlist or chart container, while `song_id` identifies a track; the chart page does not imply complete or real-time API coverage.
