As you may know, our friends are Soundcloud have decided to kill classic search.
As may or may not know, Soundcloud Manager automated the Classic website for it's automation botting functionality. So today when they finally pulled the killswitch, all the classic Soundcloud search functionality with Soundcloud Manager ceased to function. The life of a bot dev I suppose.
Well, my plans for a nice and easy Friday afternoon with hopes to finish at 6pm were swiftly shelved and frantic coding resulted in Soundcloud Manager now providing FULL search functionality automation of V2 Soundcloud. I believe this makes Soundcloud Manager the only "V2 Soundcloud Bot".
Whilst adding this new functionality, the benefits that were pointed out to me recently of interacting with Soundcloud tracks that are just uploaded with the Search and Like Soundcloud functionality (if a track was uploaded in the last hour, chances are the user is still online and actively looking at the stats for their track) resulting in more users checking our YOUR profile, listening to YOUR tracks, liking YOUR tracks which is what we want, yes? With this in mind, the new search routines all scrape date information where relevant and return the list of results in date order for your processing / saving.
A new scrape functionality has been added, allowing you to scrape User lists based on tracks returned by a search. Meaning you can scrape users who just uploaded a track as recently as an hour ago.
These updates are on the Testing Branch of Soundcloud Manager, from within the app select HELP > UPDATE > TESTING.
As these are some major changes, do inform us of any issues / difficulties you run into and they will be fixed ASAP
