The `music_identification` model analyzes audio or video content to determine when music is present and whether that music can be identified. It is designed for short-form content, automated highlights, and cue sheet workflows, with a focus on copyright compliance and music clearance.

## What the model provides

- Time-aligned detection of music within media
- Identification of recognizable music when possible
- A single, structured JSON output for review, export, and integration

## Create a Task

### music_identification.py

```python
import requests

API_KEY = "your_api_key"
HEADERS = {"Content-Type": "application/json", "x-api-key": API_KEY}

response = requests.post(
    "https://api.audioshake.ai/tasks",
    headers=HEADERS,
    json={
        "assetId": "your_asset_id",
        "targets": [
            {"model": "music_identification", "formats": ["json"]}
        ]
    }
)

task_id = response.json()["id"]
print(f"Task created: {task_id}")
```

### musicIdentification.js

```javascript
const API_KEY = "your_api_key";
const headers = { "Content-Type": "application/json", "x-api-key": API_KEY };

const createRes = await fetch("https://api.audioshake.ai/tasks", {
  method: "POST",
  headers,
  body: JSON.stringify({
    assetId: "your_asset_id",
    targets: [
      { model: "music_identification", formats: ["json"] }
    ]
  })
});

const { id: taskId } = await createRes.json();
console.log(`Task created: ${taskId}`);
```

### curl

```bash
curl -X POST "https://api.audioshake.ai/tasks" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "x-api-key: $AUDIOSHAKE_API_KEY" \
  -d '{
    "assetId": "your_asset_id",
    "targets": [
      { "model": "music_identification", "formats": ["json"] }
    ]
  }'
```

Check Task status to monitor progress and download results, or use webhooks to be notified when each target completes.
