# Streaming Audio Files

## **Streaming Audio** <a href="#streaming-audio" id="streaming-audio"></a>

**To stream audio you need to build your own URL to call our streaming service**

`https://stream.svc.7digital.net/stream/catalogue`

**You need to pass in two parameters on the call**

| **Parameter**    | Reason                                              |
| ---------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
| `&shopId=2020`   | To stream songs from the UMG catalog                |
| `&trackId={int}` | The 7digital trackId of the song you want to stream |

**Most importantly you need to sign each call with Oauth 1.0 headers using the consumer key and secret provided for this hackathon**

* `consumer_key = 7d4vr6cgb392`
* `consumer_secret = m4ntskavq56rddsa`

**We have created a form to help build and sign streaming URLs**

* ​[`Click here - to access Oauth signature reference​`](http://7digital.github.io/oauth-reference-page/)​
* `Do not use Postman - it does not correctly sign our URLs`

## ​[Oauth 1.0 Signature Reference Form](http://7digital.github.io/oauth-reference-page/)​ <a href="#oauth-1-0-signature-reference-form" id="oauth-1-0-signature-reference-form"></a>

## Partial Streams <a href="#partial-streams" id="partial-streams"></a>

**If you want to stream part of a track, you can use the range request**

**`curl -v -o partial.mp4 -H "Range:bytes=81920-" "{url to aac stream}"`**

**You will need to calculate the number of bytes that you want to start and/or finish at**[<br>](https://7digital.gitbook.io/api-doc/api-specifics)
