Automated Amazon Music Play History Logging

Every Monday, WebRun opens Amazon Music, reads the recently played history for the account your venue uses, writes each track, artist, album and playlist into a dated Google Sheets log, and drafts the reporting email in Gmail so head office or a licensing body gets a clean answer when they ask what was on.

In short

How do I keep a record of the music played in my venue?

WebRun opens Amazon Music every Monday and reads the recently played history for your venue account. It writes each track, artist, album and playlist into a dated Google Sheets log with a weekly summary, then drafts the reporting email in Gmail so you can send a clean record whenever it is asked for.

  • A dated play record exists before anyone asks for it
  • Every week is appended, building a full year in one sheet
  • The report email is written for you and never sends unapproved

Built for venue managers · cafes and bars · retail stores · gyms · hospitality operators

What does WebRun do on every run?

    WebRun in Amazon Music: read last week's play history
    WebRun opens Amazon Music to read last week's play history.
    • Open Amazon Music and go to the recently played history for the venue account
    • Read the tracks played over the week just finished, with artist, album and the playlist they came from
    • Note the date each track appears against so the log stays chronological
    • Stop at the last entry captured on the previous run so nothing is counted twice

    Done when Last week's played tracks are captured with artist, album and date.

  3. 2
    Google Sheets - log tracks, artists and dates
    google.com
    WebRun in Google Sheets: log tracks, artists and dates

    • Record the date, track, artist, album and playlist for each row
    • Add a weekly summary line with the number of tracks and the most played artists
    • Keep every past week in the same sheet so the log builds into a full year

  4. 3
    Gmail - draft the reporting email
    gmail.com
    WebRun in Gmail: draft the reporting email

Good to know

Questions, answered

Will it email the report without me?

No. The reporting email is left as an unsent Gmail draft for you to check and send, so nothing goes to head office or a licensing body unapproved.

Does it change what is playing?

No. WebRun only reads the listening history. It never starts playback, edits a playlist or changes the account's settings.

What if a week is missed?

It picks up from the last entry it captured, so a skipped run is caught on the next one rather than leaving a hole in the log.

Put this on autopilot.
