Is it possible to get the play count of a song (for the current user)? I only found Toplist and the Track class, but neither tells me how often a user listened to a song.

#1 – Open up the Spotify app or web browser. #2 – Type in the artist you are looking for in the search engine. #3 – Click through to the profile of the artist. #4 – Under the “Popular” section, you will see play counts to the right of each song.
Spotify classifies a single stream of a song when it has been listened to for 30 seconds or more. If you restart the song, whether by having it on repeat or clicking it again, it will count as another play after 30 seconds have been listened to again.
Scraping Spotify DataTo use the API, simply create a free Spotify account to use with their API and head to the Spotify API dashboard where you can access your client ID and secret. You can then use the Authentication Endpoint to get your access_token , which you'll need to access other Spotify API endpoints.
As far as I know there is no way to retrieve that data at the moment.

This is not possible through the Spotify API right now. The Last.fm API does offer information similar to this, as a potential work-around.
