A small utility that gets Apple Music API keys for you. It even allows getting user tokens, which are a bit more annoying since they involve a whole OAuth flow.
This tool is rudimentary and a work in progress.
You need a couple of things:
- Apple Developer subscription. Yes, a paid one
- A certificate generated with access to Apple Music & MusicKit APIs.
- A Key ID for that certificate.
- A Team ID for your developer account
Using the team ID, private key file (.p8) and key ID, you build a JWT that becomes your developer token. This token alone allows access to AM resources that aren't related to a user.
With that developer token, you can initiate an OAuth flow to get a user token. This one allows you to access the listening history for your account, for example.
poetry install
# Set up the tool
poetry run am-keyman configure TEAM_ID_HERE KEY_ID_HERE KEY_FILE_PATH
# Get your developer token
poetry run am-keyman get-dev-token
# OPTIONAL: Grab a user token for yourself
poetry run am-keyman get-user-token DEV_TOKEN_HERE
# ... a web server will open up, follow the instructions
# ... after completion, the token will show up in the consoleIf you mean to grab a user token using the command-line utility, do not use Firefox.
The stricter security settings built into the browser will break the OAuth flow and it won't work.
Safari worked great for me.
