LabelGrid API Documentation

LabelGrid API provides comprehensive endpoints for content providers to manage their audio catalogs, releases, distribution, and analytics. This RESTful API supports catalog management, track and release operations, distribution workflows, and integrations with external music services.

Prerequisites

The following prerequisites are required to use the LabelGrid API:

You must have an active LabelGrid account
API features enabled on your account

Authorization

All endpoints require authentication via API tokens. Include your token in the Authorization header as a Bearer token. You may generate and manage your API tokens in your LabelGrid account settings or Sandbox account settings.

NOTICE For experimenting and testing purposes, we highly recommend using the sandbox environment. See the "Sandbox Access" section below for details.

Keeping Your Data Secure

IMPORTANT LabelGrid takes data security seriously. Ensure you follow best practices for API key management.

Never expose your API keys in public repositories or client-side code.
Only use your key within server-side code to keep your keys secure.
Do not share your API keys with unauthorized parties.
Never hard-code API keys in your applications.
Use environment variables or secure vaults to store sensitive information.
Regularly rotate your API keys and monitor their usage.
