Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases. In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours, and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store. In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server. Actors are written with capital "A". ## How to integrate an Actor? If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects. You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready. The best way to integrate Actors is as follows. In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): ```bash pip install apify-client ``` In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): ````bash # MacOS / Linux curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash # Windows irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex ```bash In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md). If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## Deezer Music Search (Free) **Free Apify actor.** Search **Deezer** for tracks, artists and albums by keyword using the public [Deezer API](https://developers.deezer.com) (no API key required). Returns rich metadata including a 30-second preview URL and cover art. ### What it does For each query, it searches Deezer and returns matching tracks with title, artist, album, duration, popularity rank, a direct Deezer link, a preview MP3 URL and album cover — ready for music discovery apps, playlist tooling or catalog research. ### Input | Field | Type | Description | |---|---|---| | `queries` | array | Search terms (track, artist, or album). | | `maxResults` | integer | Tracks per query (1-100, default 25). | ### Output (one item per track) ```json { "query": "adele hello", "status": "found", "title": "Hello", "artist_name": "Adele", "album_title": "25", "duration_seconds": 295, "rank": 900000, "preview_url": "https://cdnt-preview.dzcdn.net/....mp3", "deezer_link": "https://www.deezer.com/track/...", "album_cover": "https://.../250x250.jpg" } ```` Every input yields at least one item, with `status`: `found`, `not_found`, or `error`. ### Use cases - Power music search and discovery features. - Build playlists or catalogs with preview links and cover art. - Enrich music datasets with popularity ranks and album metadata. - Prototype apps against a real music catalog without an API key. ### Limitations & fair use Data comes from the public Deezer API and is subject to Deezer's terms. Preview URLs are time-limited by Deezer. For personal, research and prototyping use. ### More actors by this developer See all free tools on the [author profile](https://apify.com/vigilant_jasmine). # Actor input Schema ## `queries` (type: `array`): Search terms: track title, artist, or album (one search each). ## `maxResults` (type: `integer`): Number of tracks to return per query (1-100). ## Actor input object example ```json { "queries": [ "daft punk", "adele hello" ], "maxResults": 25 } ``` # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup. ## JavaScript example ```javascript import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client'; // Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token // Replace the '' with your token const client = new ApifyClient({ token: '', }); // Prepare Actor input const input = { "queries": [ "daft punk", "adele hello" ] }; // Run the Actor and wait for it to finish const run = await client.actor("fit_melon/deezer-music-search").call(input); // Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any) console.log('Results from dataset'); console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`); const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems(); items.forEach((item) => { console.dir(item); }); // 📚 Want to learn more 📖?
