GraphQL API: Podcast

Get a podcast and/or its episodes 

Podcast programs and podcast episodes are popular types in the Pandora library. It also has a rich set of metadata available. This query can be used to query a specific podcast by providing an id.

The two important sections are episodes and episode groups. 

• Episodes will give you a full list of all the episodes of the podcast program. You can limit the results of this list, paginate and sort as needed.
• Episode groups are dynamic by default, and may be grouped by season, year, etc (depending on a given podcast). Some other features available are
  • You can filter the results if a podcast has more that one group type (e.g., year and season), or if you only want a set of groups,
  • Sort by release date in ascending or descending order,
  • Limit the number of episodes returned in a group.
