How to export full library step by step

1. Download MetadataExporter_Extension.zip from latest release (or another release I am not your cyber security officer)

2. Open Firefox

3. Navigate to about:debugging (copy and paste into address bar) -> This Firefox -> Load Temporary Add-on... (Sorry no signed .xpi yet)

   

4. Load extension like so:

   

5. Navigate to https://www.udio.com/home

6. Open Extension via Firefox extension menu:

   

7. Wait for the very necessary animation to play until it looks like this:

   

8. If you have any folders click on LISTEN FOR FOLDER INFO so it says Listening for folder:

   

9. Navigate to your Library, if you have enabled folder listening this might take a while especially if you have many nested folders. While it collects your folder information you will see "Fetched partial folder info at depth:..." appear a few times depending on your folder structure this might take a while:

10. If you have enabled folder listening wait until it shows "Folder Info Loaded":

    

11. Click EXPORT METADATA:

    

12. Wait until processing is complete and it downloads the udio_metadata_backup.zip file (starts automatically):

    

13. At this point you only have backed up all your metadata (prompts, lyrics, creation time, likes, plays, etc.). If that is all you need you can stop at this step. If you want to download specific or all of your songs (and/or artworks) continue with the following steps.

14. Extract the content of the .zip file somewhere with sufficient storage, required storage depends on how many songs you plan on downloading (~5k songs require ~27GB depending on song length).

15. The folder structure of the export should look like this (if you don't have any folders in your udio library you might only have page_xyz.json and no Folders or folders.json):

    Library/
    ├─ Folders/
    │  ├─ d211d389-1b67-449b-8b15-c84b87266421/
    │  │  ├─  page_xyz.json
    ├─ folders.json
    ├─ page_xyz.json
    

16. Either run python Library_Explorer.py (after following install instructions) or launch precompiled Library_Explorer.exe which should open up the initial view:

    

17. Click on Select Library Folder and navigate and load the library data extracted before for example if extracted to F:\Demo\LibraryExplorer\ navigate to F:\Demo\LibraryExplorer\Udio and select the Library folder:

    

18. After loading all data which might take a while depending on your system you should see the following:

    

19. Now you can either rightclick on individual tracks to fetch only specific songs:

    

    After which the Audio Status switches to "Available":

    

20. Alternatively run Bulk Action Audio (Missing) which will initiate downloading all missing tracks currently in view, that means you can filter only for liked tracks or only for tracks with a specific prompt or title and only download these. Or only download specific folders:

    

    

21. Optionally download cover artworks and videos, or just browse your library.

General Notes

It is advisable to backup your initially created udio_metadata_backup(7).zip as well your your Library folder once you have downloaded all files (you care about). This folder contains your Udio library if you lose this data it might be impossible to recreate/redownload at a later time because downloading might be fully disabled or the data might be deleted. The program being able to export all your data now does not guarantee that this is still possible in the future it might stop working at any point in time without a way to make it work again. So backup and store anything you care about in a safe location now.

Known Issues

• Bulk download will not update Audio Status (Select a folder or perform a search and clear searchbar as a workaround)
• If bulk downloading multiple media types at the same time the progress counter will get confused
