Phishin API

Music / API Key Intermediate HTTPS
Varies by plan (check documentation)

Overview

Phish.in is a community-maintained archive of live recordings from the band Phish, spanning decades of concerts. The API gives you access to show dates, venues, setlists, and audio track data. An API key is required and can be requested through the Phish.in website.

Beginner Tip

All endpoints are paginated by default; use the ?page= and ?per_page= query parameters to control how many results you get back per request.

Common Errors & Troubleshooting

401 Unauthorized Missing or invalid API key in the Authorization header.
Include the header Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY in every request.
404 Not Found Requesting a show date that does not exist in the archive.
Use the /shows endpoint first to list available dates before requesting a specific show.
Large response payload Requesting all shows without pagination.
Always use the ?per_page= parameter (max 20) to limit response size and page through results incrementally.

Metadata Score Breakdown

Estimated from metadata — endpoint not independently tested

This score is estimated from observable metadata — HTTPS support, authentication model, declared CORS, and documentation reachability — because the API requires authentication or exposes no publicly testable endpoint. The five-signal breakdown is only shown for live-tested APIs.
