Under Settings > Import List > Advanced List, there’s an option to provide a List URL for a Custom List. What format would that need to be in?

    A JSON array that looks like this:

    [
    {"MusicBrainzId": },
    {"MusicBrainzId": },
    {"MusicBrainzId": },
    ...
]

    I use it to fetch my Last.fm and ListenBrainz recommendations for example.

      Sorry for the necro, but can you expand on how you pull in your ListenBrainz rec?

          This is awesome, thanks! I’ve deployed the script on a basic local nginx docker container with PHP enabled but the Lidarr list import service only seems to be importing the first result. Did you run into that issue during your development?

          Seems the documentation around the custom list is non-existent. Here’s the sample output from my page:

          [ { "MusicBrainzId": "9f81247f-7f57-42f3-a8ba-75bef554e591" }, { "MusicBrainzId": "0ae49abe-d6af-44fa-8ab0-b9ace5690e6f" }, { "MusicBrainzId": "3b910f7b-018f-408f-950b-47e02d2ce305" } ]

              Yeah I’m getting Items found: 1. I just finished adding a script for the LastFM recommended artists and it’s having the same problem.

              I noticed the Lidarr code runs a “CleanupListItems” function on the deserialized results which would make sense as to why I’m just getting 1 result. It’s filtering distinct records by Artist and Album which would both be empty strings in the ImportListItemInfo collection.

          Thank you. Is there any chance you could share what the final output looks like?

          Trying to get our own script working and it would be nice to compare to a known good output

              Ok, one last question, does this mean you are watching the entire artist? What I’m trying to do is watch a specific release/release group via the list, not the entire artist, and I can’t work out the format the custom list is expecting for that
