## What's an Apify Actor?

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.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.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/platform/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.

# README

## SoundCloud Scraper — Artists, Tracks & Creator Leads (Emails, Socials & Plays)

Extract **complete SoundCloud data** — full artist profiles (followers, track counts, play counts, city, country, Pro status), tracks and playlists with genres and play stats, **and** turn every artist into a **ready-to-contact creator lead**: the **booking/management email** from their bio, every linked social (Instagram, YouTube, Spotify, Twitter/X, TikTok, Facebook), and — optionally — emails & phone numbers crawled from their own website.

No login, no OAuth, no API key, no browser — fast JSON extraction from SoundCloud's own public API with 99%+ reliability.

### Why this SoundCloud scraper?

Most SoundCloud scrapers return a track list and stop. This actor pulls from SoundCloud's internal `api-v2` and ships the **richest dataset in the category**, built for **A&R, sync licensing, distribution, PR, and artist outreach**:

| Data | Typical scrapers | This actor |
|---|---|---|
| Artist followers, track count, play/like counts | partial | ✅ |
| City, country, Pro/Next subscription, verified | ❌ | ✅ |
| **Booking / management email** (from the bio) | ❌ | ✅ |
| Linked socials — Instagram, YouTube, Spotify, TikTok, X | ❌ | ✅ |
| Artist's own **website** + crawled contact emails/phones | ❌ | ✅ opt-in |
| Lead score (0–100) per artist | ❌ | ✅ |
| Tracks: genre, plays, likes, reposts, ISRC, license, label | partial | ✅ |
| Playlists & albums (track count, genre, release date) | ❌ | ✅ opt-in |
| Monitoring — only new artists / tracks since last run | ❌ | ✅ |

### Use cases

- **Music-industry lead generation** — find independent artists, producers and beatmakers by genre or keyword and reach them directly via their **booking/management email** and socials. Score them by reach (`followerCount`, `playbackCount`).
- **A&R & talent scouting** — discover rising artists in a genre, filter by followers/plays, and monitor for **new uploads** with Schedules.
- **Sync, distribution & label outreach** — build target lists of unsigned artists with contact data, label names and ISRCs.
- **Playlist & catalog research** — pull tracks and playlists with genres, play counts and release dates for trend and market analysis.
- **PR & influencer marketing** — find creators by audience size and topic, then contact them with verified emails and social handles.

### How to use

1. [Sign up for Apify](https://console.apify.com/sign-up) — the free plan is enough to try this actor.
2. Open the **SoundCloud Scraper**, choose a mode, enter search terms (or paste artist URLs), and click **Start**.
3. Watch results stream into the dataset table.
4. **Export** as JSON, CSV, Excel, XML, or RSS — or pull results programmatically via the [Apify API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2).

### Input

```json
{
    "mode": "searchArtists",
    "searchTerms": ["lofi", "techno producer"],
    "maxResultsPerQuery": 50,
    "includeWebProfiles": true,
    "includeTracks": true,
    "maxTracksPerArtist": 10,
    "enrichCreatorContacts": true,
    "withEmailOnly": false
}
````

- **mode** — `searchArtists` (creators by keyword + leads), `artistDetails` (full profiles for specific artists, plus tracks/playlists), or `searchTracks` (tracks by keyword).
- **searchTerms** — keywords, genres or artist names. One row per term. Used by the search modes.
- **artistUrls** — profile URLs (`https://soundcloud.com/flume`), bare permalinks (`flume`) or numeric user ids. Used by `artistDetails`.
- **maxResultsPerQuery** — cap per search term (auto-paginated).
- **includeWebProfiles** *(default true)* — fetch each artist's linked socials + website (the lead wedge).
- **includeTracks / maxTracksPerArtist** — also output recent tracks per artist (type `track`).
- **includePlaylists / maxPlaylistsPerArtist** — also output playlists & albums per artist (type `playlist`).
- **enrichCreatorContacts** *(default false)* — crawl the artist's own website (home + contact/about, max 3 pages) for emails, phone and extra socials.
- **minFollowers / withEmailOnly** — output filters to tighten the result set to qualified leads.
- **monitorMode** *(default false)* — emit only records not seen in previous runs (see below).

### Output

One record per artist (`type: "artist"`), plus optional `track` and `playlist` records:

```json
{
    "type": "artist",
    "userId": 2976616,
    "urn": "soundcloud:users:2976616",
    "username": "flume",
    "displayName": "Flume",

    "description": "Management: management@example.com",
    "city": "Sydney",
    "countryCode": "AU",
    "followerCount": 2227189,
    "trackCount": 231,
    "playlistCount": 46,
    "likesCount": 149,
    "isVerified": true,
    "isPro": true,
    "subscriptionTier": "creator-pro-unlimited",

        "twitter": "http://twitter.com/flumemusic",
        "youtube": "https://www.youtube.com/user/flumeaus",
        "instagram": "http://instagram.com/flume",
        "spotify": "https://open.spotify.com/artist/..."
    },
    "webProfiles": [
        { "network": "instagram", "title": "Instagram", "url": "http://instagram.com/flume", "username": "flume" }
    ],
    "descriptionEmails": ["management@example.com"],
    "contactEmails": [],
    "contactPhones": [],
    "leadScore": 92,
    "searchQuery": "electronic",
    "scrapedAt": "2026-06-16T00:00:00.000Z"
}
```

A `track` record carries `trackId`, `title`, `permalinkUrl`, `genre`, `playbackCount`, `likesCount`, `repostsCount`, `commentCount`, `durationMs`/`durationFormatted`, `license`, `labelName`, `isrc`, `releaseDate`, plus the artist summary (`artistId`, `artistName`, `artistUrl`).

### Automate & schedule

Run this actor on autopilot and pull results into your own stack:

- **[Apify API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2)** — start runs, fetch datasets, and manage schedules over REST.
- **[apify-client for JavaScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/)** and **[apify-client for Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/)** — official SDKs.
- **[Schedules](https://docs.apify.com/platform/schedules)** — run it hourly/daily/weekly with **monitorMode** on to capture only new artists or new uploads in a genre; perfect for A\&R pipelines and newsletters.
- **[Webhooks](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/webhooks)** — trigger downstream actions (CRM import, Slack alert, email sequence) the moment a run finishes.

```js
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

const client = new ApifyClient({ token: 'MY_APIFY_TOKEN' });

const run = await client.actor('scrapesage/soundcloud-scraper').call({
    mode: 'searchArtists',
    searchTerms: ['hip hop beats'],
    maxResultsPerQuery: 50,
    enrichCreatorContacts: true,
    withEmailOnly: true,
});

const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
console.log(`Got ${items.length} artist leads`);
```

### Integrate with any app

Connect the dataset to 5,000+ apps — no code required:

- **[Make](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/make)** — multi-step automation scenarios.
- **[Zapier](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/zapier)** — push new creator leads straight into your CRM.
- **[Slack](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/slack)** — get notified when a monitored search finds new artists.
- **[Google Drive / Sheets](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/drive)** — auto-export every run to a spreadsheet.
- **[Airbyte](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/airbyte)** — pipe results into your data warehouse.
- **[GitHub](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/github)** — trigger runs from commits or releases.

### Use with AI assistants (MCP)

The output is clean, LLM-ready JSON. You can call this actor from Claude, ChatGPT, or any agent framework through the **[Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp)** — ask your assistant to "find techno producers on SoundCloud with over 10k followers and list their contact emails" and let it run this scraper for you.

### Agent-ready: autonomous payments (x402 & Skyfire)

This actor is **agent-ready** — AI agents can discover it, run it, and **pay for it autonomously**, with no Apify account and no human in the loop. It uses [pay-per-event](https://docs.apify.com/platform/actors/publishing/monetize/pay-per-event) pricing and [limited permissions](https://docs.apify.com/platform/actors/development/permissions), so it qualifies for Apify's agentic-payment standards:

- **[x402](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/x402)** — an open, HTTP-native payment protocol. Agents pay per run in USDC on the Base network directly through the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp) — no account, no API key.
- **[Skyfire](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/skyfire)** — agent-to-service payments for fully autonomous AI-agent workflows.

Building an AI agent, MCP tool, or autonomous data pipeline? This scraper is ready to plug in and pay as it goes.

### Tips

- **Genre targeting**: search broad genre terms (`lofi`, `techno`, `drill`, `house`) or niche ones — SoundCloud's search returns artists and tracks ranked by relevance.
- **Best leads**: turn on `includeWebProfiles` (default) for socials + website, then `enrichCreatorContacts` to crawl the website, and set `withEmailOnly` to keep only contactable artists.
- **Recurring monitoring**: combine [Schedules](https://docs.apify.com/platform/schedules) with `monitorMode` to track only newly listed artists/tracks; it dedupes against earlier runs and never conflicts with the scheduler.
- **Cost control**: web-profile fetches and website crawls are per-artist; lower `maxResultsPerQuery` for quick test runs.

### FAQ

**Do I need a SoundCloud API key or login?** No. The actor uses SoundCloud's public web API with the same public `client_id` the website uses, discovered automatically at runtime. If SoundCloud rotates that key and results look empty, paste a fresh one into the `clientId` input.

**Where do the emails come from?** From the artist's public bio (where many list a "Management" / "Booking" email) and their `webProfiles`. With `enrichCreatorContacts` on, the actor also visits the artist's own public website and extracts publicly listed contact emails — the same thing a human visitor would see.

**Can I export to Google Sheets, CSV, or Excel?** Yes — one click in the dataset view, or automatically on every run via the [Google Drive integration](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/drive).

**How do I monitor new uploads automatically?** Turn on `monitorMode`, then create a [Schedule](https://docs.apify.com/platform/schedules). Each run emits only artists/tracks not seen before.

**A field is null — why?** Some artists genuinely don't publish a city, website or email. Fields are `null` only when the data doesn't exist, not because the scraper skipped them.

**Is scraping SoundCloud legal?** This actor collects publicly available data only. You are responsible for using the data in compliance with applicable laws (GDPR/CCPA for personal data) and SoundCloud's terms.

# Actor input Schema

## `mode` (type: `string`):

Pick a job. Search artists finds creators by keyword (full profiles + leads). Artist details pulls full profiles for specific artists (plus their tracks/playlists). Search tracks finds tracks by keyword.

## `searchTerms` (type: `array`):

Keywords to search SoundCloud for, e.g. `lofi`, `techno producer`, `hip hop beats`, an artist name, or a genre. One row per term. Used by the Search artists and Search tracks modes.

## `artistUrls` (type: `array`):

Artists to pull full details for: profile URLs (`https://soundcloud.com/flume`), bare permalinks (`flume`), or numeric user ids (`2976616`). One per row. (Mode: Artist details.)

## `maxResultsPerQuery` (type: `integer`):

Cap the number of artists (or tracks) returned per search term. Results are paginated automatically until this limit or the result set is exhausted.

## `includeWebProfiles` (type: `boolean`):

Fetch each artist's linked profiles — Instagram, Twitter/X, Facebook, YouTube, Spotify, their own website and more (one extra request per artist). This is the main lead wedge alongside the booking/management email in the bio.

## `includeTracks` (type: `boolean`):

For artist modes, also output recent track records (type `track`) for each artist — title, genre, plays, likes, duration, release date and more. In monitoring mode this returns only NEW tracks since the last run.

## `maxTracksPerArtist` (type: `integer`):

How many recent tracks to pull per artist when 'Include artist tracks' is on.

## `includePlaylists` (type: `boolean`):

For artist modes, also output playlist/album records (type `playlist`) for each artist — title, track count, genre, release date and more.

## `maxPlaylistsPerArtist` (type: `integer`):

How many playlists/albums to pull per artist when 'Include artist playlists & albums' is on.

## `enrichCreatorContacts` (type: `boolean`):

Opt-in lead enrichment: visit each artist's own public website (home + a contact/about page) and extract contact emails, phone numbers and social links — for A\&R, sync licensing, distribution, PR and booking outreach. Only runs for artists that list a website.

## `minFollowers` (type: `integer`):

Skip artists with fewer than this many followers. 0 keeps everyone.

## `withEmailOnly` (type: `boolean`):

Output only artists that have at least one email (from the bio or, if enrichment is on, their website). Tightens the result set to ready-to-contact leads.

## `monitorMode` (type: `boolean`):

Remember what was already returned and emit ONLY records not seen in previous runs (new artists for a search, new tracks per artist, or new tracks for a search). Pairs with Apify Schedules to track changes over time.

## `monitorStoreName` (type: `string`):

Named key-value store that holds the 'already seen' ids for monitoring mode. Use a different name per tracked target/query to keep their histories separate. Lowercase letters, digits and hyphens only.

## `clientId` (type: `string`):

Optional override for the public SoundCloud web client\_id. Leave blank — the actor discovers a fresh one automatically. Only set this if results come back empty (SoundCloud rotated the key).

## `maxConcurrency` (type: `integer`):

Maximum parallel requests. Lower it if you hit rate limits on very large runs.

## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):

Proxy settings. SoundCloud's public API works fine through the default Apify datacenter proxy; switch to residential for very large or high-frequency runs.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "mode": "searchArtists",
  "searchTerms": [
