Extract list of Record companies (e.g. DECCA, UMG, EMI) - via API

KSG1960 — Sat, 28 Oct 2023 14:26:28 GMT

I would like to extract various information related to an album from Spotify (via API). In addition to details like Title, Artist, and Year, I also need information about the record company that produced/released the album.

Example: How can I list albums produced by DECCA between 1940 and 2020?

I'm not sure how to accomplish this. Can someone help me?

Thank you!

You can use the Search endpoint and use the search terms label: and year:

Note: there's a maximum amount of items that endpoint can provide at once, so you may want to loop through each year one-by-one instead of using year:1940-2020.

Thanks!

But can that provide the name of the record Company, e.g. DECCA, EMI?
