The Bandcamp.com crawler is a web scraping tool that allows you to extract data from the Bandcamp music platform. With this crawler, you can get information about albums, tracks, and much more. The crawler is built on top of Apify SDK, and you can run it both on the Apify platform and locally.

You can access the Bandcamp Crawler programmatically from your own applications by using the Apify API. You can choose the language preference from below. To use the Apify API, you’ll need an Apify account and your API token, found in Integrations settings in Apify Console.

You can choose from:

You can start Bandcamp Crawler with the Apify API by sending an HTTP POST request to the Run Actor endpoint. An Actor’s input and its content type can be passed as a payload of the POST request, and additional options can be specified using URL query parameters.
