Get total amount of time (i.e. minutes or seconds) streamed for a track from Spotify API

I am trying to build a project using my personal streaming history with Spotify. I plan on using the Spotify API as well as Spotipy (possibly).

Is there a way to find out how many minutes or seconds a particular track was streamed by me? I've already browsed questions which suggest Last.fm but this does not work retroactively. Specifically, I want amount of time streamed for a track between (say) Mar 2019 to Mar 2020.

Solution

  • You can request your streaming history by going into your settings on the spotify desktop site. It says it could take up to 30 days, I'm still waiting on mine.
