What you get#
Onekey exposes Discogs as 5 endpoints behind one API key: 4 endpoints return one record (data is an object) and 1 endpoint return a list (data is an array). Every answer uses the same envelope (success, data, metadata, error), the cost is reported in metadata.credits_charged, and fields are mapped onto the unified schema so the code you write for Discogs also works for the rest of the music & audio category.
Endpoints#
| Endpoint | What it does | Parameters | Credits | Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|
artist | Discogs artist by id. | id* | 1 | beta |
label | Discogs record label by id. | id* | 1 | stable |
master | Discogs master release by id. | id* | 1 | stable |
release | Discogs release by id. | id* | 1 | beta |
search_releases | Search Discogs releases. | q* | 5 | beta |
A * marks a required parameter. Each endpoint name links to its reference page with the full parameter table, caching window and a recorded response.
Make a request#
This calls discogs.label (1 credit, stable). Replace YOUR_API_KEY with your key; sign up, no card. 1,000 free credits cover the open-platform endpoints. Hard-to-reach platforms (X, TikTok, Instagram, Reddit, and others marked on their page) need a verified email and a purchased pack.
curl "https://api.onekey.dev/v1/discogs/label?id=1" \
-H "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY"Fields you get back#
These unified fields come back from Discogs, with the same names as on every other platform. The count is how many of its 5 mapped endpoints return the field; a field the source lacks is null, never missing. 9 platform-specific fields (ext.<name>) come on top, documented on each endpoint page.
| Field | Type | Endpoints |
|---|---|---|
entity.id | string | 4 |
entity.name | string | 4 |
entity.url | URL | 4 |
entity.year | integer | 3 |
media.thumbnailUrl | URL | 3 |
entity.country | string | 2 |
author.bio | string | 1 |
author.displayName | string | 1 |
author.id | string | 1 |
author.url | URL | 1 |
entity.description | string | 1 |
The full schema is in Unified schema.
