API access for VC funded startup

[bipedal103]

Hi

Excitr is a startup that aims to deepen the artist - fan connection.
We are building features for fandom, such as rewarding fans, offering exclusive content and similar.

We support Spotify and Deezer, and would like to add SoundCloud.

We are VC funded and in active development.

Is it possible to get access to the API in order to implement following of artists on SoundCloud, playing of tracks and Connect with SoundCloud feature?

Thank you.

Title: Cannot retrieve all tracks for a user

Issue found of: September 20th, 2020

Endpoint(s):

• GET /users/{id}/tracks

Scope(s):

• None (application is not using authentication i.e., implicit flow)

Steps to reproduce:

curl --request GET \
  --url 'https://api.soundcloud.com/users/12345/tracks?limit=1&linked_partitioning=true&client_id=DONT_SHARE_CLIENT_ID'

Expected behaviour:

A list of tracks as described at https://developers.soundcloud.com/docs/api/reference#users.

Actual behaviour:

500 Server Error (consistently)

Hey @bipedal103, I'm wondering if your request is still valid and whether you have a client_id already as I saw in the request you are using one

Hi @youssefhassan
Thanks for following up on this.
No, we don't have our own client id.
Should I open a new ticket and send you the id here?

Thank you
✌️
