NetEase Cloud Music Music charts API

Q: How fresh is the chart data?

Each row carries two times: snapshotted_at, when the row was read, and playlist_updated_at, when NetEase last updated the chart. Quote playlist_updated_at as the chart's date, and keep snapshotted_at to show when you took your copy.

Q: How do I measure a song's movement up or down the chart?

Read the chart on a schedule and store rank per track_id together with snapshotted_at. The change in rank between two runs is the movement; a track_id that appears for the first time is a new entry, and one that disappears has dropped off.

Get the tracks on NetEase Cloud Music charts, each with rank, artists, album, duration and heat score, plus the chart's name, play count and last update. popularity_score runs from 0 to 100 and is not a play count, and rank reflects that snapshot only.

NetEase Cloud Music charts reads NetEase's official charts and needs no parameters. Each row is one track on a chart: its rank, title and alternate title, performing artists, album and cover, duration, release date, explicit marker and NetEase heat score, together with the chart's name, ID, cover, play count, saves and last update. Use it to follow which songs lead on NetEase Cloud Music, for chart reports, music marketing, A&R scouting or spotting songs on the rise.

Charts move quickly, so keep snapshotted_at, the moment each row was read, with every copy you store, and compare runs by it. playlist_name names the chart a row belongs to and rank is the position on that chart. popularity_score is NetEase's heat score from 0 to 100, not a count of plays, and duration_ms is in milliseconds.

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 Music charts endpoint (netease_music/toplist).

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 toplist, and put the parameters inside params.
- No required parameters.
- 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": "toplist",
  "params": {}
}
- 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.

Response example

Real response

Captured September 26, 2026 at 08:56 (UTC) by calling this API with the parameters in the code sample above. results and count are that call's real response with personal information (names, handles, avatars, profile links, contact details) removed; the list keeps the first 2. id, billing and quota differ on every call, so only their shape is shown.

FAQ

Can I choose which chart to read?

The capability takes no parameters and returns the official charts as NetEase publishes them; playlist_name and playlist_id on each row tell you which chart you are looking at. To read a different public list, pass its numeric ID to the NetEase Cloud Music Playlist capability.

How fresh is the chart data?

Each row carries two times: snapshotted_at, when the row was read, and playlist_updated_at, when NetEase last updated the chart. Quote playlist_updated_at as the chart's date, and keep snapshotted_at to show when you took your copy.

How do I measure a song's movement up or down the chart?

Read the chart on a schedule and store rank per track_id together with snapshotted_at. The change in rank between two runs is the movement; a track_id that appears for the first time is a new entry, and one that disappears has dropped off.

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).
