Apple Music API is one of 199 APIs that [iOS](https://apis.io/providers/ios/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network. Tagged areas include Apple Music, Music, Catalog, Streaming, and MusicKit. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes API documentation, an API reference, and authentication docs.

The Apple Music API is Apple's REST surface for Apple Music catalog, library, ratings, playlists, recommendations, and search. Calls are authenticated with a developer token (JWT) and, when accessing a subscriber's personal data, an additional Music User Token obtained through MusicKit on the device. It powers Apple Music integrations in iOS apps and on the web.
