Spotify Podcast Charts Scraper

🎙️ Track Spotify podcast charts by market

Podcast networks, media researchers, sponsorship teams, and data teams can collect current ranked podcast listings from Spotify's public charts. Choose markets and charts, then get one dataset row per show with its rank, Spotify identity, public link, chart details, and observation time. Publisher, description, artwork, Spotify movement, and numeric rank change are included when the source provides them.

This gives you a clean snapshot to compare shows across markets or use in your own data work.

Use it for

• Review Spotify Trending Podcasts for a current view of trending shows in a selected market.
• Collect Spotify Podcast Charts for a chosen market and chart.
• Check Podcast Rankings This Week when you need a fresh chart snapshot.
• Find Top 10 Podcasts On Spotify for a short ranked list.
• Compare Top Podcasts On Spotify across selected markets.

📈 Spotify podcast ranking rows

Each saved row represents one podcast listing from one selected market and chart. It keeps the name, stable Spotify ID, public show URL, chart rank, market, chart, observation time, and source chart URL together. Optional fields add Spotify's movement label, numeric rank change, publisher, description, and artwork.

▶️ Run a fresh Spotify chart snapshot

Pick one or more markets and charts. Each chart is used with every selected market, and the show limit applies to each pair.

Run steps

1. Add one or more two-letter Spotify market codes, such as US or GB.
2. Add top, trending, or a supported genre chart ID.
3. Optionally enter a positive whole number for shows per market and chart.
4. Leave the limit empty to return all available results until the source is exhausted.
5. Start the run and open the dataset link in the output.

💳 Pricing

How charges work

Pay-per-event pricing charges $0.00001 for each ranked podcast show saved to the dataset. The event is tied to the saved show, and the Apify Console shows the active price before a run. The number of charges depends on the rows saved by your selected market and chart pairs.

A lower per-pair limit can reduce the number of saved rows and charges.

🔌 Integrations

Dataset access

Use the dataset link from the run output to read rows through the Apify dataset API or export them in the formats Apify offers. Keep podcastUrl and sourceChartUrl when you need public links back to Spotify.

❓ FAQ

What happens when I select several markets and charts?

Every selected chart is used with every selected market. The show limit applies separately to each pair, so one run can contain rows from several combinations.

What does an empty show limit do?

Leaving maxShowsPerCombination empty returns all available results until the source is exhausted. Spotify currently exposes up to 200 shows for universal charts and up to 50 for genre charts.

Why is rankChange missing?

It is included only when a comparable prior observation is available. Spotify's rankMovement label can still be present without a numeric change.

Do I need a Spotify login or API key?

No. This Actor reads Spotify's public chart data and does not require buyer authentication to Spotify.

Does it return episodes or audio?

No. The scope is ranked podcast listings. It does not return episodes, reviews, audio, listening counts, downloads, revenue, demographics, or private audience data.

Is this historical ranking data?

No. Each run is a current snapshot at observation time. To compare dates, keep datasets from repeated runs and compare the same show's rank by market and chart.

Which charts can I choose?

Use top for Top Podcasts, trending for Trending Podcasts, or a supported genre chart ID. Genre charts are available only in the supported markets for that chart.

Can a chart return fewer shows than my limit?

Yes. The limit is a ceiling for each pair, and the available source rows may be fewer.
