UPC Lookup API
The Musicfetch UPC lookup API finds an album or release by Universal Product Code and returns normalized release metadata across music services. Use it when you already have a UPC and need service links, album title, artists, track counts, or availability from supported platforms.
If you need to discover the UPC first, use the free UPC finder. If you have a Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, or other service link instead of an identifier, use URL lookup.
When to use UPC lookup
- Match the same album or single release across multiple streaming platforms.
- Enrich an internal catalog with service links and normalized album metadata.
- Verify whether a release identifier resolves to the expected album title and artist.
- Build music distribution, catalog, royalty, or reporting workflows around stable release IDs.
