Welcome Developers!
Our API exposes the full range of SoundCloud functionality for third-party developers. Developers can upload tracks, access comments & tracks, edit metadata and more. This page is the starting point for all resources that you will need to develop an application or mashup of your own and aims to serve as a complete reference source.
How do I start?
- Read the developer docs

- If you're interested in authenticated access to the API, read up on oAuth and register your application here
- Try calling methods and monitor the response using our console
