Return guessed mbid on the listenbrainz api

ListenBrainz
1

Hello,

We want to sync listenings and favorites into funkwhale database. I know there is a system in listenbrainz that guessed mbid when they are not submitted. We would like to get these guessed mbid to avoid to guess them ourselves ( we would have to do a lot of queries to mb, doesn’t seem right).

What do you think to add the guessed mbid in this api endpoint Core — ListenBrainz 0.1.0 documentation ?

Thanks :slight_smile:

Hey yuioen,

the mapped MBIDs are already part of the API response under mbid_mapping. Take for example the following two listens from my listen history:

https://api.listenbrainz.org/1/user/outsidecontext/listens?max_ts=1701278040&count=2

Both were submitted with a client not supporting MBID submission, and hence where auto mapped by LB. The mbid_mapping shows mapped recording and release ID.
