SoundCloud Play和Like Counts

Question

Is it possible to retrieve Soundcloud Play and Like Counts for a single track with just the URL. I don't know if its php or java. I have a little knowledge of both. Thanks for your help.

Answer 1

If you check out the Soundcloud HTTP API Reference, you will see that the /tracks endpoint can provide you with the relevant values:

Name                Description             Example Value

playback_count      track play count        435
favoritings_count   track favoriting count  6

You can use the JavaScript SDK or the 3rd party PHP SDK to get these values.
