# SoundCloud Public API Specification

soundcloud.com/main version 1.0.0. The API exposes 59 endpoints secured with apiKey authentication.

## For AI agents

Programmatically the oauth2 authorization endpoint. your app redirects a user to this endpoint, a, this endpoint accepts post requests and is used to provision access tokens once . Covers 59 operations with apiKey authentication.

## Scope

Does not handle payments, communications, or crm - use for developer tools only.

## Capabilities

- The OAuth2 authorization endpoint. Your app redirects a user to this endpoint, a
- This endpoint accepts POST requests and is used to provision access tokens once
- Returns the authenticated user’s information.
- Recent the authenticated user's activities.
- Monitor SoundCloud Public API Specification operational status and events

## Use cases

### Developer Tools Operations

Use the SoundCloud Public API Specification to perform developer tools operations programmatically. The API provides 59 endpoints covering core functionality including the oauth2 authorization endpoint. your app redirects a user to this endpoint, a, this endpoint accepts post requests and is used to provision access tokens once , returns the authenticated user’s information..

Example prompt: Call GET /connect to the oauth2 authorization endpoint. your app redirects a user to this endpoint, a

### Automated oauth Management

Automate oauth operations by combining multiple SoundCloud Public API Specification endpoints. Agents can this endpoint accepts post requests and is used to provision access tokens once  and then returns the authenticated user’s information. in a single workflow.

Example prompt: Call POST /oauth2/token to this endpoint accepts post requests and is used to provision access tokens once , then verify the result

### AI Agent Integration via Jentic

AI agents discover and call SoundCloud Public API Specification endpoints through Jentic without managing credentials directly. An agent searches for the required operation by intent, receives the matching endpoint schema, and executes the call with Jentic-managed authentication. This eliminates the need to read API documentation or handle apiKey tokens manually.

Example prompt: Search Jentic for 'the oauth2 authorization endpoint. your app redirects a user to this endpoint, a', load the operation schema, and execute with Jentic-managed credentials

## Why Jentic

- **Setup:** Wiring the SoundCloud Public API by hand means running its OAuth2 token exchange, passing the client id or Authorization header on every call, pointing at the api.soundcloud.com host, and handling paging and retries yourself. Through Jentic you install once, import the SoundCloud Public API from the API Directory, store the credential once, and your agent calls it.
- **Permission scoping:** Most SoundCloud endpoints act on the authenticated user through /me rather than resource ids in the URL path, so limit the agent to the operations it needs, such as reading your activities or listing your connections. You choose the operations it may call, so state-changing ones are not included unless you add them.
- **Credential handling:** Your SoundCloud credential is stored once, encrypted, by your own Jentic One instance and injected at execution time. It never enters the agent's prompt, logs, or context.
- **Discovery method:** Agents search Jentic by intent such as 'get my recent activities' or 'list my connections', and Jentic returns the matching SoundCloud operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing the reference docs.

## FAQ

### What authentication does the SoundCloud Public API Specification use?

The SoundCloud Public API Specification uses an API key passed in the `client_id` query. Through Jentic, these credentials are stored encrypted in your Jentic One instance and injected at execution time, so raw secrets never enter the agent context.

### Can I the oauth2 authorization endpoint. your app redirects a user to this endpoint, a with the SoundCloud Public API Specification?

Yes. Use the GET /connect endpoint. The API returns structured JSON responses that agents can parse and act on directly.

### What are the rate limits for the SoundCloud Public API Specification?

Rate limits are not specified in the OpenAPI spec. Check the vendor documentation for current limits. Through Jentic, rate limiting is handled automatically with retry logic built into the execution layer.

### How do I the oauth2 authorization endpoint. your app redirects a user to this endpoint, a through Jentic?

Install the Jentic SDK with pip install jentic, authenticate through Jentic One, the self-hosted execution layer, then search for 'the oauth2 authorization endpoint. your app redirects a user to this endpoint, a'. Jentic returns the matching SoundCloud Public API Specification operation with its input schema. Load the schema and execute the call - credentials are injected automatically.

### How many endpoints does the SoundCloud Public API Specification have?

The SoundCloud Public API Specification exposes 59 endpoints covering oauth, me, search operations.

### Can I limit what my agent is allowed to do with the SoundCloud API?

Yes. Because Jentic One is self-hosted, you decide which SoundCloud operations your agent may call and which credential it uses. Most SoundCloud endpoints act on the authenticated user through /me, so you can scope the agent to only read-oriented calls such as getting your recent activities or listing your connected accounts. State-changing operations are excluded unless you explicitly add them to what the agent is allowed to call.
