Trying to get high/low level data by api rest call but getting 404

Hey everyone,
I’m trying to get metadata by rest API call following: Web API — AcousticBrainz 1.0.0 documentation
*Base URL: https://acousticbrainz.org
*Endpoint: GET /api/v1/mbid/high-level

I extracted the MBID from Musicbrainz:
https://musicbrainz.org/release/b23174de-9120-4324-af29-40e910c088c2/details

and the actual call is:
https://acousticbrainz.org/api/v1/b23174de-9120-4324-af29-40e910c088c2/low-level

Does anyone know why it doesn’t work for MBID by MusicBriaze? or maybe I need to put the value of the record id instead? if so - where i can find that record id?

Thanks for any help!

Hi,

Yes, I think the recording id should be used instead.

b23174de-9120-4324-af29-40e910c088c2 is a release (i.e. an album, even if it only has one song here).

The recording mbid (i.e. the song) is a655f293-ea2a-4eec-abc0-31d1c91ebbc5
There’s a link on the song title. You can also get it with MusicBrainz Picard.

With the recording mbid, the link is: https://acousticbrainz.org/api/v1/a655f293-ea2a-4eec-abc0-31d1c91ebbc5/low-level

I hope I’m not talking nonsense.
