The Deezer API can be utilized to obtain the most played songs by country by performing the following steps:

  1. Register for a Deezer API key.
  2. Use the Search API to retrieve the Deezer ID for the country you want to obtain the most played songs for. The Deezer ID can be found in the API response under "artist" or "album" objects.
  3. Use the Chart API to retrieve the top tracks for the given country. You can specify the country by including the Deezer ID as a query parameter in the API request.
  4. Parse the API response to obtain the most played songs for the given country.

Example API Requests:

  1. Search API request to obtain the Deezer ID for Germany: https://api.deezer.com/search?q=Germany…

    Response: { "data": [ { "id": 122269, "name": "Germany", "type": "country", "picture": "", "picturesmall": "", "picturemedium": "", "picturebig": "", "picturexl": "", "tracklist": "https://api.deezer.com/playlist/122269/…", "md5_image": "" } ], "total": 1, "prev": null, "next": null }

    The Deezer ID for Germany is 122269.

  2. Chart API request to obtain the most played songs for Germany: https://api.deezer.com/chart/0/tracks?l…

    Response: { "data": [ { "id": 32122285, "title": "Senorita", "link": "https://www.deezer.com/track/32122285", "duration": 190, "rank": 1, "explicitlyrics": false, "explicitcontentlyrics": 0, "explicitcontentcover": 0, "preview": "https://cdns-preview-8.dzcdn.net/stream…", "artist": { "id": 231758, "name": "Shawn Mendes", "link": "https://www.deezer.com/artist/231758", "picture": "", "picturesmall": "", "picturemedium": "", "picturebig": "", "picturexl": "", "tracklist": "https://api.deezer.com/artist/231758/to…", "type": "artist" }, "album": { "id": 3663821, "title": "Senorita", "cover": "", "coversmall": "", "covermedium": "", "coverbig": "", "coverxl": "", "md5image": "", "tracklist": "https://api.deezer.com/album/3663821/tr…", "type": "album" }, "type": "track" }, ... ] }

    The API response includes the top 10 most played songs in Germany. The "title" field in the "data" array contains the name of the song.
