Batching CatalogSearchRequests for Spotify Playlist conversion
Hi! Im attempting to make a spotify to apple playlist converter and to do so am using the Catalog search functionality of the api. My question is, is there anyway to convert these songs to apple music urls (or ids) that does not spam api calls. I know you can batch catalog searches if you have apple music song ids, but I obviously dont have that since the song was shared from spotify. Any ideas/help is appreciated!

Unable to add MusicKit capability
I have an existing Xcode project that I am trying to add MusicKit to, but for some reason I am unable to. I have logged into my developer account, and ticked off the MusicKit checkbox under the Services tab of my app in the Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles section. In Xcode I have Automatically manage signing set to true. But MusicKit does not show up as a Capability, neither in the list of capabilities in my app, nor when trying to add it with the +Capability button. I have done this successfully before with Game Center, so I really do not understand why this does not work with MusicKit. Any ideas as to how this can be solved?

MusicKit: How do we search by title or name only?
I can't find any way to search for a song by title only. You can search for songs, but any term you provide appears to be applied to any metadata associated with the song. Look at the largely nonsensical results when I search for a song with the letters "de": In many cases, that string doesn't appear anywhere. I used MusicCatalogSearchRequest(term: searchTerm, types: [Song.self]) Likewise it stands to reason that people want to search for artist and album names using text strings. How do we do that?

Generate recomendation QUEUE after selection a song in MusicKit
Hi, I'm developing a musicKit integration in my iOS App, and I want to select songs from recently played (done it), the problem is that the queue is not auto-generated and the user have to select other song if they want to go forward. There is any method to ask for similar songs, or recommended songs, from a song that the user has already selected? It will be really great :) Also if you know it... There is any publisher for the music duration or I need to do a timer?? Thanks. David.

Clear ApplicationMusicPlayer queue after station queued
After an Album, Playlist, or collection of songs have been added to the ApplicationMusicPlayer queue, clearing the queue can be easily accomplished with: ApplicationMusicPlayer.shared.queue.entries = [] This transitions the player to a paused state with an empty queue. After queueing a Station, the same code cannot be used to clear the queue. Instead, it causes the queue to be refilled with a current and next MusicItem from the Station. What's the correct way to detect that the ApplicationMusicPlayer is in the state where it's being refilled by a Station and clear it? I've tried the following approaches with no luck: # Reinitialize queue ApplicationMusicPlayer.shared.queue = ApplicationMusicPlayer.Queue() # Create empty Queue let songs: [Song] = [] let emptyQueue = ApplicationMusicPlayer.Queue(for: songs) ApplicationMusicPlayer.shared.queue = emptyQueue

Playlist IDs from MusicKit not working with Apple Music API
I am building an app for MacOS and I am trying to implement the code to add songs to a library playlist (which is added below). The issue I am having is that if I use Music Kit to load a users library playlists, the ID for the playlist (which is just a string of numbers) does not work with the Add tracks to a Library Playlist endpoint of Apple Music API. If I retrieve the playlists from the Apple Music API and use that playlist ID (which is different than the id I get from MusicKit) my code works fine and adds the song to the playlist. The problem is that when getting a users library playlists from Apple Music API is that it does not give me all of the library playlists that I get when using Music Kit and it also does not give me Artwork for playlists that have the collage of album covers, so I would prefer to use Music Kit to get the playlists. I have also tested trying to retrieve a single playlist using the Apple Music API with the playlist Id from Music Kit and it does not work. I get the error that the resource cannot be found. Since this is a macOs app I cannot use MusicKit to add songs to library playlists. Does anyone know a way to resolve this? Or a possible workaround? Ideally I want to use MusicKit to get the library playlists and have some way to use the playlist Id and add songs to that playlist. Below is my code for adding a song to a playlist using the Apple Music API, which works correctly only if I originally get the library playlist's id value from a playlist retrieved from the Apple Music API. Also, does anyone know why the playlist Id's are not universal and are different when using Music Kit and Apple Music API? For songs and tracks it does not seem to matter if I use music kit or Apple Music API, the Id's are in the correct format for Apple Music API to use and work with my code. Thanks everyone for any and all help! func addToPlaylist(songs: [Track], playlist: Playlist, alert: Binding<AlertItem?>) async { let tracks = AppleMusicPlaylistPostRequestBody(data: songs.compactMap { AppleMusicPlaylistPostRequestItem(id: $0.id.rawValue, type: "songs") // or "library-songs" }) let playlistID = playlist.id // Build the request URL for adding a song to a playlist guard let url = URL(string: "https://api.music.apple.com/v1/me/library/playlists/\(playlistID)/tracks") else { alert.wrappedValue = AlertItem(title: "Error", message: "Invalid URL for the playlist.") return } // Authorization Header guard let musicUserToken = try? await MusicUserTokenProvider().getUserMusicToken() else { alert.wrappedValue = AlertItem(title: "Error", message: "Unable to retrieve Music User Token.") return } do { var request = URLRequest(url: url) request.httpMethod = "POST" request.setValue("Bearer \(musicUserToken)", forHTTPHeaderField: "Authorization") request.setValue("application/json", forHTTPHeaderField: "Content-Type") let encoder = JSONEncoder() let data = try encoder.encode(tracks) request.httpBody = data let musicRequest = MusicDataRequest(urlRequest: request) let musicRequestResponse = try await musicRequest.response() // Check if the request was successful (status 201) if musicRequestResponse.urlResponse.statusCode == 201 { alert.wrappedValue = AlertItem(title: "Success", message: "Song successfully added to the playlist.") } else { print("Status Code: \(musicRequestResponse.urlResponse.statusCode)") print("Response Data: \(String(data: musicRequestResponse.data, encoding: .utf8) ?? "No Data")") // Attempt to decode the error response into the AppleMusicErrorResponse model if let appleMusicError = try? JSONDecoder().decode(AppleMusicErrorResponse.self, from: musicRequestResponse.data) { let errorMessage = appleMusicError.errors.first?.detail ?? "Unknown error occurred." alert.wrappedValue = AlertItem(title: "Error", message: errorMessage) } else { alert.wrappedValue = AlertItem(title: "Error", message: "Failed to add song to the playlist.") } } } catch { alert.wrappedValue = AlertItem(title: "Error", message: "Network error: \(error.localizedDescription)") } }

Linking to iTunesLibrary requires access every launch?
Hello, I have a command line application that uses iTunesLibrary to "save" the state of what I have listened to. I have it run every night via a LaunchAgent. You can see the source here: https://github.com/bolsinga/itunes_json Prior to Sequoia it would run nightly. I'd just have to grant it access to the Music library once, and it would be fine thereafter. However with Sequoia it requires UI interaction to grant it access every time. This makes it no longer run unattended overnight, defeating its purpose. I have the console logs of when this happens. You can see it in my issue tracking it here: https://github.com/bolsinga/itunes_json/issues/410 One thing that makes me wonder is that it is a command line application, not a bundle. How do I make a command line application get access to MusicKit / iTunesLibrary, and keep it thereafter? I'd like to get my pre-Sequoia behavior back. I've filed FB15592660 too. I've granted it access to run in the background, as well as access to my Music library (please see attached screenshots).

MusicKit currentEntry.item is nil but currentEntry exists.
I'm trying to get the item that's assigned to the currentEntry when playing any song which is currently coming up nil when the song is playing. Note currentEntry returns: MusicPlayer.Queue.Entry(id: "evn7UntpH::ncK1NN3HS", title: "SONG TITLE") I'm a bit stumped on the API usage. if the song is playing, how could the queue item be nil? if queueObserver == nil { queueObserver = ApplicationMusicPlayer.shared.queue.objectWillChange .sink { [weak self] in self?.handleNowPlayingChange() } } } private func handleNowPlayingChange() { if let currentItem = ApplicationMusicPlayer.shared.queue.currentEntry { if let song = currentItem.item { self.currentlyPlayingID = song.id self.objectWillChange.send() print("Song ID: \(song.id)") } else { print("NO ITEM: \(currentItem)") } } else { print("No Entries: \(ApplicationMusicPlayer.shared.queue.currentEntry)") } }

MusicKit and sorted artist and album names?
I have an app that gets data from Music.app with both the iTunesLibrary and MusicKit. iTunesLibrary has ITLibArtist.sortName and ITLibAlbum.sortTitle and ITLibAlbum.sortAlbumArtist. I can’t seem to find an equivalent in MusicKit. How are those properties obtained using MusicKit? Thanks. FYI I have filed FB15554956 on this. You also may see my code at https://github.com/bolsinga/itunes_json

Missing for a decade, full quality + remote control
Is anyone developing a way for users to control an iOS or PadOS device playing Apple Music to a DAC via USB to amp from another iOS or PadOS device wirelessly? Specifically, full control. Not Accessibility, not to Apple TV, not HomePods, not firmware downgraded Airport Expresses to a DAC or other hacks mentioned for the past decade this “connect” like feature has been desired by audiophiles seeking exclusive mode on a device with that (iOS/PadOS) but — control it while sitting on a couch or in a wheel chair across the room. Exclusive mode being the key feature iOS and PadOS offer that is desired with full or nearly full Apple Music control.

Getting tracks from Recommendation Playlist
Hi all, I am working with MusicKit and have managed to get a user's recommendation playlists (favorites, get up, etc). Isolating just one, I am trying to access the tracks in there using .tracks but it returns nothing. Wondering if I am doing something wrong or if these don't have tracks necessarily associated with them. Code is below (not everything just kinda where I am accessing the playlist) try await requestMusicAuthorization() let request = MusicPersonalRecommendationsRequest() let response = try await request.response() guard let madeForYou = response.recommendations.first(where: { $0.title == "Made for You" }) else { throw NSError(domain: "RecommendationError", code: 0, userInfo: [NSLocalizedDescriptionKey: "No 'Made for You' recommendation found."]) } guard let firstPlaylist = madeForYou.playlists.first else { throw NSError(domain: "PlaylistError", code: 1, userInfo: [NSLocalizedDescriptionKey: "No playlists found in 'Made for You' recommendation."]) } print("Fetching tracks for playlist: \(firstPlaylist.name ?? "Unknown")") let playlistRequest = MusicCatalogResourceRequest<Playlist>(matching: \.id, equalTo: firstPlaylist.id) let playlistResponse = try await playlistRequest.response() guard let playlist = playlistResponse.items.first else { throw NSError(domain: "PlaylistError", code: 2, userInfo: [NSLocalizedDescriptionKey: "Couldn't fetch the playlist details."]) } guard let tracks = playlist.tracks else { throw NSError(domain: "PlaylistError", code: 3, userInfo: [NSLocalizedDescriptionKey: "No tracks found in the playlist."]) }

Why Aren't All Songs Being Added to the Queue?
Hi, I've recently been working with the Apple Music API and have had success in loading all the playlists on my account, loading songs from each playlist, and adding songs to the ApplicationMusicPlayer.share.queue. The problem I'm running into is that not all songs from the playlist are being added to the queue, despite confirming all the songs are being based on the PlaybackView.swift I'm about to share with you. I would also like to answer other underlying questions if possible. I am also open to any other suggestions. In this scenario were also assuming isShuffled is true every time. How can I determine when a song has ended? How can I get the album title information? How can I get the current song title, album information, and artist information without pressing play? I can only seem to update the screen when I select my play meaning ApplicationMusicPlayer.shared.play() is being called. How do I get the endTime of the song? I believe it should be ApplicationMusicPlayer.shared.queue.currentEntry.endTime but this doesn't seem to work. // // PlayBackView.swift // // Created by Justin on 8/16/24. // import SwiftUI import MusicKit import Foundation enum PlayState { case play case pause } struct PlayBackView: View { @State var song: Track @Binding var songs: [Track]? @State var isShuffled = false @State private var playState: PlayState = .pause @State private var isFirstPlay = true private let player = ApplicationMusicPlayer.shared private var isPlaying: Bool { return (player.state.playbackStatus == .playing) } var body: some View { VStack { // Album Cover HStack(spacing: 20) { if let artwork = player.queue.currentEntry?.artwork { ArtworkImage(artwork, height: 100) } else { Image(systemName: "music.note") .resizable() .frame(width: 100, height: 100) } VStack(alignment: .leading) { // Song Title Text(player.queue.currentEntry?.title ?? "Song Title Not Found") .font(.title) .fixedSize(horizontal: false, vertical: true) // How do I get AlbumTitle from here?? // Artist Name Text(player.queue.currentEntry?.subtitle ?? "Artist Name Not Found") .font(.caption) } } .padding() Spacer() // Progress View // endTime doesn't work and not sure why. ProgressView(value: player.playbackTime, total: player.queue.currentEntry?.endTime ?? 1.00) .progressViewStyle(.linear) .tint(.red.opacity(0.5)) // Duration View HStack { Text(durationStr(from: player.playbackTime)) .font(.caption) Spacer() if let duration = player.queue.currentEntry?.endTime { Text(durationStr(from: duration)) .font(.caption) } } Spacer() Button { Task { do { try await player.skipToNextEntry() } catch { print(error.localizedDescription) } } } label: { Label("", systemImage: "forward.fill") .tint(.white) } Spacer() // Play/Pause Button Button(action: { handlePlayButton() isFirstPlay = false }, label: { Text(playState == .play ?

How to get Song Information From Queue?
I have a recent post kind of outlining a similar question here. This time though I'm confident that inserting an array of Track works when inserting into the ApplicationMusicPlayer.shared.queue but now I'm not sure how I can initialize the queue to display song title and artwork for example. I'm also not sure how to get the current item in the queue's artist information and album information which I feel should be easy to do so maybe I'm missing something obvious. Hope this paints of what I'm trying to do and I'm going to post the neccessary code here to help me debug/figure out this problem. import SwiftUI import MusicKit struct PlayBackView: View { @Environment(\.scenePhase) var scenePhase @Environment(\.openURL) private var openURL // Adding Enum Here for Question Sake enum PlayState { case play case pause } @State var song: Track @Binding var songs: [Track]? @State var isShuffled = false @State private var playState: PlayState = .pause @State private var songTimer: Int = Int.random(in: 5...30) @State private var roundTimer: Int = 5 @State private var isTimerActive = false // @State private var volumeValue = VolumeObserver() @State private var isFirstPlay = true @State private var isDancing = false @State private var player = ApplicationMusicPlayer.shared private var isPlaying: Bool { return (player.state.playbackStatus == .playing) } let timer = Timer.publish(every: 1, on: .main, in: .common).autoconnect() var playPauseImage: String { switch playState { case .play: "pause.fill" case .pause: "play.fill" } } var body: some View { VStack { // Album Cover HStack(spacing: 20) { if let artwork = player.queue.currentEntry?.artwork { ArtworkImage(artwork, height: 100) } else { Image(systemName: "music.note") .resizable() .frame(width: 100, height: 100) } VStack(alignment: .leading) { /* This is where I want to display song title, album title, and artist name for example */ // Song Title Text(player.queue.currentEntry?.title ?? "Unable to Find Song Title") .font(.title) .fixedSize(horizontal: false, vertical: true) // Album Title // Text(player.queue.currentEntry ?? "Album Title Not Found") // .font(.caption) // .fixedSize(horizontal: false, vertical: true) // I don't know what the subtitle actually grabs Text(player.queue.currentEntry?.subtitle ?? "Artist Name Not Found") .font(.caption) } } .padding() // Play/Pause Button Button(action: { handlePlayButton() isFirstPlay = false }, label: { Text(playState == .play ? "Pause" : isFirstPlay ? "Play" : "Resume") .frame(maxWidth: .infinity) }) .buttonStyle(.borderedProminent) .padding() .font(.largeTitle) .tint(.red) } .padding() // Maybe I should use the `.task` modifier here? .onAppear { // I'm sure this code could be improved but don't think it'll help answer the question at the moment. Task { if let songs = songs { do { if isShuffled { let shuffledSongs = songs.shuffled() try await player.queue.insert(shuffledSongs, position: .tail) handlePlayButton() } else { try await player.queue.insert(songs, position: .tail) } } catch { print(error.localizedDescription) } } } } } private func handlePlayButton() { Task { if isPlaying { player.pause() playState = .pause isTimerActive = false } else { playState = .play await playTrack() isTimerActive = true } } } @MainActor private func playTrack() async { do { try await player.play() } catch { print(error.localizedDescription) } } } //#Preview { // PlayBackView() //}

iOS 18: ApplicationMusicPlayer.Queue breaks if one more songs in Library
Hi there, After upgrading to iOS 18, I noticed that ApplicationMusicPlayer.Queue behavior has broken if at least one song that is added to the queue is also in to the Apple Music Library on the device. The resulting behavior is that the queue does not accept all the items, and only items that are in the Library are playable in the queue. The expected behavior and the previous behavior on iOS 17 was that all the items would be added to the queue successfully. I confirmed this behavior on a separate test device running iOS 17.7. The items added are all being fetched via MusicCatalogResourceRequest<Song> so I would expect that a requested song being present in the library would have no effect.

MusicKit & React Native app, overlay part of a song to a video?
I have an app on which users learn choreography. To avoid copyright infringements we currently only have audio instructions and no music on the app. Could we enable those that are subscribed to Apple Music to listen to the part of a song the corresponds to the choreography? Usually they are 60 seconds long. The app is in React Native. Would it be possible to implement it so that opening a dance video automatically triggers the playback of that song from e.g. second 32 - 95? Since the video is looping, could it then start playing from second 32 again? Also looking for devs with experience in integrating the MusicKit for this usecase if it turns out to be possible.

How to fetch all albums after performing a library request
Hi, In my app I am using MusicLibraryRequest<Artist> to fetch all of the artists in someone's Library collection. With this response I then fetch each artists albums: artist.with([.album]). The response from this only gives albums in the users Library collection. I would like to augment it with all of the albums for an artist from the full catalogue. I'm using MusicKit and targeting iOS18 and visionOS 2. Could someone please point me towards the best way to approach this?

MusicKit Queue broke in iOS18
It's simple to reproduce. The bug is simply when you queue a bunch of songs to play, it will always queue less than what you gave it. Here, I'm attempting to play an apple curated playlist, it will only queue a subset, usually less than 15, but as low as 1 out of 100. Use the system's forward and backwards to test it out. Here is the code, just paste it in to the ContentView file and make sure you have the capibility to run it. import SwiftUI import MusicKit struct ContentView: View { var body: some View { VStack{ Button("Play Music") { Task{ await playMusic() } } } } } func getOnlySongsFromTracks(tracks:MusicItemCollection<Track>?) async throws ->MusicItemCollection<Song>?{ var songs:[Song]? if let t = tracks{ songs = [Song]() for track in t { if case let .song(song) = track { songs?.append(song) print("track is song \(track.debugDescription)") }else{ print("track not song \(track.debugDescription)") } } } if let songs = songs { let topSongs = MusicItemCollection(songs) return topSongs } return nil } func playMusic() async { // Request authorization let status = await MusicAuthorization.request() guard status == .authorized else { print("Music authorization denied.") return } do { // Perform a hardcoded search for a playlist let searchTerm = "2000" let request = MusicCatalogSearchRequest(term: searchTerm, types: [Playlist.self]) let response = try await request.response() guard let playlist = response.playlists.first else { print("No playlists found for the search term '\(searchTerm)'.") return } // Fetch the songs in the playlist let detailedPlaylist = try await playlist.with([.tracks]) guard let songCollection = try await getOnlySongsFromTracks(tracks: detailedPlaylist.tracks) else { print("no songs found") return } guard let t = detailedPlaylist.tracks else { print("no tracks") return } // Create a queue and play let musicPlayer = ApplicationMusicPlayer.shared let q = ApplicationMusicPlayer.Queue(for: t) musicPlayer.queue = q try await musicPlayer.play() print("Now playing playlist: \(playlist.name)") } catch { print("An error occurred: \(error.localizedDescription)") } }

Song releaseDate always nil
I am fetching playlist songs from the users library and also need the releaseDate (or year) for the song for my use case. However, the releaseDate is always nil since I have upgraded to sequoia. I am pretty sure, this was working before the upgrade, but I couldn't find any documentation on changes related to this. Furthermore I noticed, the IDs also now seem to be the catalog IDs instead of the global ones like i.PkdZbQXsPJ4DX04 Here's in a nutshell what I am doing func fetchSongs(playlist: Playlist) async throws { let detailedPlaylist = try await playlist.with([.tracks]) var currentTracks: MusicItemCollection<Track>? = detailedPlaylist.tracks repeat { for track in currentTracks! { guard case .song(let song) = track else { print("This is not a song") continue } print(song.releaseDate) } currentTracks = try await currentTracks?.nextBatch() } while currentTracks != nil }
