Class GetUsersTopArtistsRequest

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    IRequest<Paging<Artist>>

    public class GetUsersTopArtistsRequest
    extends AbstractDataRequest<Paging<Artist>>
    Get the current user’s top artists based on calculated affinity.

    Affinity is a measure of the expected preference a user has for a particular track or artist. It is based on user behavior, including play history, but does not include actions made while in incognito mode. Light or infrequent users of Spotify may not have sufficient play history to generate a full affinity data set.

    As a user’s behavior is likely to shift over time, this preference data is available over three time spans. See GetUsersTopArtistsRequest.Builder.time_range(String) for more information.

    For each time range, the top 50 tracks and artists are available for each user. In the future, it is likely that this restriction will be relaxed. This data is typically updated once each day for each user.
