Common to every endpoint

Any route can answer these: a missing or wrong key, no credits left, the platform not answering, or a failure on our side. None of them costs credits.

GET /v1/cosmos/profile?handle=design

{
  "success": false,
  "message": "Invalid API key"
}

04Notes

The profile fields sit at the top level of the answer, next to the envelope. An unknown artist, or a URL that is not a profile, is a free 404; a value that is neither a profile name nor a soundcloud.com URL is a free 400.
