Megaphone

Megaphone (Megaphone by Spotify) is an enterprise podcast hosting, distribution, and advertising-monetization platform, owned by Spotify since its 2020 acquisition. Its REST API (base https://cms.megaphone.fm/api) lets podcast producers and partners programmatically manage networks, podcasts, and episodes, run dynamic ad insertion, and operate direct-sales advertising - campaigns, orders, advertisements, advertisers, and targeting - plus pull metrics and impressions via export services. API documentation is public, but an API token requires a paid Megaphone account (Professional from $99/month, or Enterprise).

Megaphone publishes 7 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Campaigns API, Direct Sales v2 API, Episodes API, and 4 more. Tagged areas include Podcasting, Podcast Hosting, Advertising, Ad Monetization, and Dynamic Ad Insertion.

Megaphone’s developer surface includes authentication, documentation, API reference, pricing, and 8 more developer resources.
