At the end of 2016, VC closed access to audio recordings to third-party applications through the corresponding API. But in the App Store there are still many applications that provide audio recordings. Tell me, please, how can this API be hacked?

  • Your question will probably be closed, since the issue of hacking is not discussed here. What is offered in the store does not work anymore. I certainly did not try everything, but many. - 0xdb

Api is of two types, public and "for the elect", for example Kate Mobile. In order for your application to fall into the list of favorites, you need to write to those. support matching request. Then they decide there to give you advanced features or not. This is the official path, unofficial link.

Officially, as @ sviat-volkov said, you need to contact VK support. Of the benefits - in case of a positive decision, they will provide full access to the Music API methods. Of the minuses - you need to go there with at least something ready, besides, Contact has not just closed its music section.

Informally, you can use the Private API, i.e. API of the VK application itself. Of the benefits - bypass the minuses of the official approach Of the minuses - less stable work, more capricious in use (you need to comply with the frequency of requests, go to the "correct" IP, so that the captcha does not fall out). In addition, in this case, no one will tell you about the new changes in the Private API.

PS I do not advise you to trust individual loopholes, because they are periodically covered. If you decide to write something on this topic, go immediately with one of these approaches, or combine to taste)))
