How to Find an Artists Spotify ID

To identify unique Australian musicians, we use Spotify ID to query Spotify for details to use in our charts. Finding a Spotify ID for an artist is trivial to do.

Visit the artist page on Spotify (web or desktop). Ensure the artist is correct – there may be other bands or artists with the same name.

Go to the ‘Copy Artist Link’ menu item, as shown below.

Click the ‘Copy Artist Link’ and then open a text editor. From here, paste the link.

The Spotify artist ID is the part of the URL between the trailing slash after /artist/ and the question mark, as illustrated in highlight below.

That’s it! You now have the artists Spotify ID.
