Trackflow | Music App Admin
A platform to import the music from various online sources like Youtube, Spotify, Daily motion etc which would then be shown in his already created mobile app.
The Challenge
The client had an existing mobile music app and needed a way to populate it with content from YouTube, Spotify, Dailymotion, and other online sources. The work was primarily API development and backend automation using web scraping. The scale of the requirement made manual import completely impractical: the client's first monthly target was 1 million songs.
What We Built
Admin Panel for Music Import and Organisation
We created an admin panel that allows the user to import and organise all music across unlimited categories, tags, and artists. Users can define these attributes for each piece of imported music, building a structured catalogue from the incoming content.
Playlist Import for Bulk Ingestion
Importing one song at a time was not viable at the required scale. We built a playlist import feature that pulls an entire playlist from a source in a single operation — allowing thousands of songs to be imported at once. This was the key to making the client's 1 million song target achievable and keeping the import process efficient as volumes grew.
Streaming API for the Mobile App
To make the imported songs available to the mobile app, we exposed a RESTful and streaming API that delivers songs and their associated metadata to the client's existing app.
The Result
Trackflow gave the client a fully automated content pipeline from multiple music platforms into their mobile app. Playlist-level bulk import made large-scale ingestion practical, and the streaming API connected the admin backend directly to the existing mobile experience — without requiring any rebuild of the client's app.
