FAQ

How many tracks can I scrape? As many as you like — set maxItems to cap the run, or leave it high to pull everything available.

Do I need any setup or a login? No setup and no login. Just add the actor, choose a mode, and run.

How do I scrape a specific playlist? Use playlist mode and add the playlist ID(s). The ID is in the URL: music.163.com/#/playlist?id=<ID>.

What export formats are supported? JSON, CSV, Excel and XML, plus programmatic access through the Apify API.

How does billing work? You pay only per item you get, so costs scale with the number of tracks you scrape.

Is the data only public data? Yes — the scraper returns only publicly available track information.

Can I integrate this with other tools? The NetEase Music Scraper can be connected with almost any cloud service or web app thanks to integrations on the Apify platform. It works with Make, Zapier, Slack, Airbyte, GitHub, Google Drive and many more, plus the Apify API, JavaScript/Python clients and MCP. Or use webhooks to trigger an action whenever a run finishes.

Notes

Original clean-room implementation. Returns only public data; you are responsible for compliance with NetEase's terms. Not affiliated with NetEase.

You pay only for what the run returns. Set a maximum cost per run and it stops cleanly at that limit.
