KKBOX API not working for you?

  1. KKBOX needs OAuth. A 401 or 403 usually means a missing, expired or mis-sent credential: check whether it belongs in a header or the query string.
  2. A 429 response means you're being rate-limited. Slow down, cache responses, and respect any Retry-After header.
  3. If calls fail only in the browser with a CORS error, KKBOX may not allow cross-origin requests. Call it from your server instead.
  4. If it works from one network but not another, check firewalls, VPNs and regional blocks.
  5. Check the provider's documentation, status page or social accounts for planned maintenance or a changed endpoint.

KKBOX API status FAQ

Is KKBOX API down right now?

KKBOX answered our last daily check (Oct 24, 2026, 12:25 UTC) in 1690 ms with HTTP 200. This page also runs a live check from our server when you open it, so you can see whether KKBOX is responding at this moment.

How do you check whether KKBOX API is up?

Once a day our checker requests KKBOX's listed URL (https://developer.kkbox.com) and records whether it answers within 15 seconds. Answers like 401 (needs a key), 403 (blocks bots) or 429 (rate-limited) count as up, because the server responded. The listed URL is often the documentation page, so an API endpoint can occasionally fail while its docs stay up.

What can I use if KKBOX API is down?

Free Music APIs that were up at their last check include MusicBrainz, Radio Browser, Openwhyd. See the full list of KKBOX alternatives for a comparison.
