Fixing missing Apple/Spotify Profile IDs

If you see that one of your releases is in distribution error due to a missing Apple/Spotify ID, here is how to fix it most easily:

  • Go to Rights Holders > Artists > the artist missing an Apple/Spotify profile ID.
  • Enter their ID(s).
  • Save your work.
  • Go to the release’s Distribution page (NOT the main Distribution section; it’s rather the Distribution tab/section of a specific release when you’re viewing that release).
  • Look at the Error tab and select all DSPs that you wish to update.
  • Use the Options menu located at the top (not the one on the DSP row; the one at the top) and select “Update metadata”.
  • Type “update” and send.

Note: if you cannot find the artist in Rights Holders > Artists please open a support ticket and indicate:

  • The release ID or UPC
  • The name of the artist
