Discogs

Collect music catalogue data, public collections and marketplace listings from Discogs. Enter IDs, URLs, usernames or a list of queries.

Features

Process	What you get
Artists and labels	Profiles, members and associated releases
Releases and masters	Available tracklists, credits, genres, formats and versions
Public users	Profiles, inventories, collection folders and collection items
Search	Suggestions for artists, releases, masters and labels
Marketplace listings	Available sellers, condition, shipping, prices and release statistics

Fields depend on the selected category and public source response. Marketplace filters apply where supported.

Quick start

Select Get → Artist, enter 855971, and run the Actor to retrieve Philharmonia Hungarica's profile. Choose Artist releases to collect their discography instead.

{
  "process": "get",
  "category": "artistReleases",
  "ids": ["855971"],
  "maximum": 100,
  "proxy": { "useApifyProxy": false }
}

For mixed queries, use Custom input:

{
  "myids": {
    "input": [
      { "id": "855971", "process": "get", "category": "artist" },
      { "id": "26647", "process": "get", "category": "masterVersions" },
      { "id": "jamescaton", "process": "get", "category": "collectionItemsByFolder" }
    ]
  }
}

Custom input overrides the regular ID list. Maximum limits results per query; Maximum total results limits the whole run.

Available categories

Process	Categories
Get	artist, artistReleases, release, master, masterVersions, label, labelReleases, profile, inventory, listing, collectionFolders, collectionFolder, collectionItemsByFolder
Search	artist, release, master, label, all
Sell	release (release ID), list (search term or barcode)

Sell reads marketplace information; it does not create or modify listings. Collection queries read public folders and the all-items folder. Private records require access that this Actor does not provide.

Results

Each result identifies its keyword, process and category, with the source fields in data. List results contain one record per row while retaining their familiar array or object structure. For example, a master-version result uses data.versions, and a marketplace result uses data.prices with available statistics.

Export results as JSON, CSV or Excel, or use them in Apify integrations and API workflows.

Website search and marketplace access depend on Discogs verification. If those requests are blocked, try a suitable proxy and, for marketplace requests, your own Discogs cookie. Availability, shipping and market statistics can vary by location.

Unsuccessful lookups

Where listed in the Pricing tab, a handled lookup problem that prevents a run from returning any real results produces one clear error record and a single $0.02 unsuccessful-lookup fee, in addition to any listed start fee.

Pricing

Each valid pay-per-event run with at least one input includes a minimum charge of 100 result units, shared across all inputs in that run. Any placeholder rows are clearly marked and contain no scraped data; filter them out when exporting. Each separate run has its own minimum, including scheduled or API runs. Platform usage is included.
