Is purchase_title officially supported?

[alexweinstein]

I'd like users to be able to update the Buy URL as well as the Buy Title for each track. As I'm working on the functionality, I'm finding some inconsistencies. It seems that the option to update a track's Buy Title is limited to certain accounts (possibly paid ones). Even on SoundCloud.com.

SoundCloud Next User - Updating does not work for this users

• PUT purchase_url does not cause an error
• PUT purchase_title does not cause an error
• GET users/{id}/tracks/{track_id} return contains updated purchase_url, but null purchase_title

SoundCloud Next Pro User - Updating works for this users

• PUT purchase_url does not cause an error
• PUT purchase_title does not cause an error
• GET users{id}tracks/{track_id} return contains updated purchase_title and purchase_url

This also seems to be the case on SoundCloud.com metadata editor. See screenshots below.

Is purchase_title limited to paid accounts? Is this a bug? Or is the purchase_title a field that is not officially supported and should be avoided?

Hey @alexweinstein, does this issue still persist?

Yup. This is still the behavior. Unsure if this is a bug or just a limit on paid accounts.
