iTunes Search API

iTunes Search API

Operate iTunes Search API through your OOMOL-connected account. This skill calls the itunes_search connector with the oo CLI; OOMOL injects credentials server-side, so you never handle raw tokens.

Running an action

iTunes Search API needs no account connection. Assume the oo CLI is installed and signed in. Do not run oo auth login proactively — just run the action. Fall back to First-time setup only when a command actually fails.

1. Inspect the contract to get the authoritative input/output schema before building a payload:

oo connector schema "itunes_search" --action ""

2. Run the action with a JSON payload that matches the input schema:

oo connector run "itunes_search" --action "" --data '' --json

• --data takes a JSON object string or @path/to/file.json; omit it to send {}.
• The response is { "data": ..., "meta": { "executionId": "..." } }; the execution id lives under meta.executionId.

Each action is listed below with a one-line description; actions that change state carry a [write] or [destructive] tag. Before constructing --data, fetch the action's live schema with oo connector schema to get its authoritative input fields.

Available actions

• lookup_store — Look up iTunes Store and Apple Books Store records by identifier, and optionally return the content related to each record, such as the albums of an artist or the tracks of an album. Identifier lookups are faster than searching and produce no false positives.
• search_store — Search the iTunes Store and Apple Books Store for music, movies, podcasts, apps, audiobooks, TV shows and books, and return the matching store records.

Safety

• Untagged actions are reads (get / list / search) — safe to run directly.
• Actions tagged [write] change iTunes Search API state — confirm the exact payload and effect with the user before running.
• Actions tagged [destructive] remove or overwrite data — always confirm the target and get explicit approval first.

First-time setup

These are one-time steps — do not repeat them on every call. Run a step only when a command fails for the matching reason.

• oo: command not found — install the oo CLI (other platforms: ):

  curl -fsSL https://cli.oomol.com/install.sh | bash    # macOS / Linux
  

  irm https://cli.oomol.com/install.ps1 | iex           # Windows PowerShell
  

• Not signed in / authentication error — sign in to your OOMOL account once:

  oo auth login
  

• HTTP 402 / OOMOL_INSUFFICIENT_CREDIT — billing stop. Recharge at https://console.oomol.com/billing/token-recharge before retrying.
