Deezer Arl Token Guide

The Deezer ARL token is notably powerful because it bypasses two-factor authentication (2FA) once the session is created. If you lose your token, a malicious actor can impersonate you.

The ARL token is sent as a request header or query parameter for nearly all authenticated API endpoints:

Critical API endpoints that accept the ARL token include:

To understand the ARL token, you must first understand Deezer’s authentication architecture. Deezer Arl Token

When you log into Deezer via a web browser or mobile app, the platform’s servers generate a unique session identifier. For standard web browsing, this is often stored in cookies. However, for Deezer’s API (Application Programming Interface)—which powers features like playlist synchronization, track streaming, and user data retrieval—the ARL token is the preferred method.

The token is typically a 192-character hexadecimal string (though formats have varied slightly over different Deezer generations). Here is an example (fictional):

arl=6f3e2d1c0b9a8f7e6d5c4b3a2f1e0d9c8b7a6f5e4d3c2b1a0f9e8d7c6b5a4f3e2d1c0b9a8f7e6d5 The Deezer ARL token is notably powerful because

When you present this token in an HTTP request header or as a cookie value, Deezer’s servers recognize you as a specific user—whether free-tier or subscribed to Deezer Premium, Family, or HiFi. The token bypasses two-factor authentication (2FA) and password checks, which is why it is so powerful and so sensitive.

While extracting your own ARL token for personal, non-commercial use is generally tolerated, using it to:

…violates Deezer’s Terms of Service (Section 5: “No Unauthorized Copying or Redistribution”). Deezer has automated systems to detect abnormal API traffic. If your token makes thousands of requests per minute, Deezer will ban the token and potentially terminate your account. The ARL token is sent as a request

Fair use recommendation: Use the ARL token only for personal automation and legitimate offline listening for music you own or have streaming rights to.

For forensic investigators, the ARL token provides:

Alternatively, you can fetch it using JavaScript:

Note: Tokens may regenerate if you log out, clear cookies, or change your password. If your token stops working, repeat the process.

Best Practice: After using the tool, revoke the session by logging out of all devices (see below) or changing your password. Do not leave your ARL token saved in a shared computer or online notepad.
