Research direction

Start by reviewing the public API documentation for track uploads and checking whether Get Heard recommendations, monetization, and ISRC-related fields are supported. Done means establishing the documented API behavior for these fields and identifying the required scope of any change.

Description

enhancement

Hello everyone, as a new user, let me introduce myself.

I'm using the API to upload files to SoundCloud, and it works perfectly.
As a account pro user on SC, if you use the upload manager, you have the option to enable "get heard" recommendations for each track, and to apply monetization to tracks when you have the ISRC.
Is it possible to update these fields through the API?
Thank you.
