The Search API allows you to place search fields in your website to search for content within the iTunes Store and Apple Books Store. You can search for a variety of content; including books, movies, podcasts, music, music videos, audiobooks, and TV shows.

To search for content from a field in your website and display the results in your website, you must create a search field that passes a fully-qualified URL content request to the iTunes Store, parse the JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) format returned from the search, and display the results in your website.

Features:

  • Search by Content.
  • Search by Artist Name.
  • Search by Album Name.

Let’s check with some examples.

Example

  • To search for all Honey Singh audio and video content (movies, podcasts, music, music videos, audiobooks, short films, and tv shows), your URL would look like the following:
    Example : https://itunes.apple.com/search?term=Honey+Singh
  • To search for all Honey Singh audio and video content and return only the first 25 items, your URL would look like the following:
    Example : https://itunes.apple.com/search?term=Honey+Singh&limit=25
  • To search for only Arjit Singh music videos, your URL would look like the following:
