Update data from external links (Instagram, Twitter, Spotify...)

[Lovemonk_Asesor]

Hello, I have built a table with links to spotify, Instagram, twitter and tik tok and I also include the number of followers of each of the artists in the table. I update this data by hand and I would like to know if there is a way to automate this update or to do it on demand for a previously selected group of artists. Thank you!

Hm, you could potentially do this with a webscraping service, but you'd need to have a fair amount of JavaScript knowledge to deal with that I reckon.  Super interested to hear options from other people though!

Hello Airtable Community,

Automating the process of updating follower counts from platforms like Spotify, Instagram, Twitter, and TikTok can save you a lot of time. You can use APIs provided by these services to fetch the data programmatically. For example, Spotify and Twitter offer robust APIs that allow you to query information about artists, including their follower counts. Similarly, for Instagram and TikTok, there are third-party services that can help you retrieve this data. To manage these API calls, you can write scripts in Python or use tools like Zapier for a more user-friendly experience. Additionally, you might find Spotify Lite Mod APK useful for managing your Spotify data more efficiently...Nice to Thanks!

To do this, you can use APIs provided by each platform (such as the Instagram Graph API, Twitter API, and Spotify Web API) to fetch real-time data, including the number of followers for specific artists. For a more streamlined experience, you could create a custom script or use an automation tool that integrates these APIs to update the data in your table on demand. Additionally, if you're looking to automate Spotify data updates, you might consider exploring third-party apps like Spotify++ iOS, which can help with easier access to Spotify information, though it’s essential to ensure compliance with each platform’s usage terms.

To automate updating Spotify artist data (e.g., follower count), use the Spotify Web API.

1. Get API access Spotify Developer Dashboard
2. Use the API endpoint /artists/{id} to fetch artist details, including follower counts.
3. Write a script (e.g., in Python) to query the API and update your table.
4. Schedule the script for periodic updates or trigger it on demand.

Para hacer esto, puede utilizar las API proporcionadas por cada plataforma (como la API Graph de Instagram, la API de Twitter y la API web de Spotify) para obtener datos en tiempo real, incluida la cantidad de seguidores de artistas específicos. Para una experiencia más optimizada, puede crear un script personalizado o utilizar una herramienta de automatización que integre estas API para actualizar los datos de su tabla a pedido. Además, si está buscando automatizar las actualizaciones de datos de Spotify, podría considerar explorar aplicaciones de terceros como Spotify premium, que pueden ayudar a facilitar el acceso a la información de Spotify, aunque es esencial garantizar el cumplimiento de los términos de uso de cada plataforma.

You can accomplish this by using the APIs that each network offers (such the Instagram Graph API, Twitter API, and Spotify Web API) to retrieve real-time data, such as the quantity of followers that particular artists have. You may utilize an automation solution that incorporates these APIs or write your own script to update the data in your table whenever needed for a more efficient experience. Furthermore, if you want to automate Spotify data updates, you might want to check into third-party apps like which can facilitate access to Spotify data, but it's crucial to make sure that you're following each platform's usage guidelines. Spotify Lite Premium APK
