How to get a Catalog Playlist id?

Hi there, I am currently developing a 3rd-party client for Apple Music on iOS devices, but got stuck when trying to fetch artworks for catalog playlists.


According to Apple Music API, "Get a Catalog Playlist", we may fetch a playlist by using its identifier as a path parameter, and the URL of the artwork is contained in the response :

https://developer.apple.com/documentation/applemusicapi/get_a_catalog_playlist


However, the playlist identifier is nowhere to be found, does anyone know how exactly can I access "the unique identifier for the playlist"? Any help would be appreciated!

Problem solved, in case anyone comes after me wondering, you may use the "Get All Library Playlists" as a web service endpoint to fetch all library playlists (including the ones user-created and Apple shared publicly).


Check in the link: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/applemusicapi/get_all_library_playlists


The response contains pretty much all you need for a playlist.


If anyone has other solutions, you may share them down here, thank you.
