Search by parameters

( params )

The module returns a promise.

param type default description
[timeout] number 5000 Wait time out in ms
[userAgent] string searchitunes.js User-Agent header
... mixed API parameters

Lookup by ID

When you wish to retrieve one specific item by its ID, include one of the ID params to use the Lookup API. The result data will be only the object with the item's details.

ID params

  • amgAlbumId
  • amgArtistId
  • amgVideoId
  • id
  • isbn
  • upc

When you lookup a trackId from a search response it will be automatically converted to the id parameter instead. Otherwise the API won't understand it.

searchitunes ({ id: 123456 })
  .then (console.log)
  .catch (console.error)
;
