This process only applies if you already have an existing profile; it's not required to create a new one.

🧭 Step by step to add your IDs

  1. Enter the platform and go to the Catalog → Artists tab .

  2. Select your artist profile.

  3. Complete the following fields in your profile:

    • SoundCloud Profile : Paste the full URL (e.g., https://soundcloud.com/tuartista)

    • Apple Music Artist ID :
      – Copy the numbers at the end of your link, after the name

      (example: 1467880022en https://music.apple.com/.../1467880022)

    • Spotify Artist ID :
      – Copy the alphanumeric code that appears after /artist/and before the parameter ?si=(example: 0bOrkDLzYe57Zl803Zv8wwde https://open.spotify.com/artist/0bOrkDLzYe57Zl803Zv8ww?si=...)

✅ Why is it important?

  • Ensure your releases are linked to the correct profile in each DSP

  • Avoid assignment errors or scattering your songs on incorrect profiles

  • Facilitates more accurate tracking and analysis of your audience

ℹ️ Important note

  • This process is only necessary if you already have existing profiles on the platforms.

  • It is not necessary if the platform will create a new artist profile during distribution.
