Understanding the Deezer ARL Token
What is an ARL Token?
ARL stands for Authentication Request Link. It is a specific string of characters (a cookie) that Deezer uses to keep a user logged in to the web player. Deezer Arl Token
You can only find this token using a desktop web browser (Chrome, Edge, Firefox, or Safari), as it is not accessible through the official Deezer mobile app. Log in to Deezer Deezer.com in your browser and sign in to your account. Open Developer Tools Windows/Linux Ctrl + Shift + I Cmd + Option + I Navigate to Storage/Application , click the Application , click the Find the Cookie On the left sidebar, expand the dropdown and select Deezer ARL token (Access Rights Language) is a
Where it’s used
- Deezer web player (desktop/mobile browsers).
- Third-party scripts or apps that mimic browser requests sometimes use ARL to access user-level endpoints.
- Community tools and unofficial API wrappers use ARL for actions that require an authenticated user (managing playlists, scrobbling, rating tracks).
6. Legal and Ethical Considerations
6.1 Terms of Service Violation
Deezer’s Terms of Service prohibit automated access, scraping, or any use of the API without explicit authorization. Using an extracted ARL token for any purpose other than legitimate user access (e.g., forensic analysis without a warrant) constitutes a violation and potentially computer fraud in jurisdictions with strict cybercrime laws (CFAA in the US, Computer Misuse Act in the UK).

1.2 Problem Statement
Despite its convenience for maintaining persistent login states across sessions, the ARL token introduces significant security risks. As a static bearer token, any entity possessing the ARL string can impersonate the legitimate user against Deezer’s API endpoints without requiring passwords, two-factor authentication (2FA), or re-authentication. This paper investigates the technical implementation, security lifecycle, and forensic value of the ARL token.
Copy the ARL: Look for a cookie named arl in the table. The value is a long alphanumeric string (e.g., a1b2c3d4e5...). Double-click the value to highlight and copy it. Method 2: Browser Extension
Expiration: The token generally remains valid until you manually log out of Deezer on that specific browser. If your third-party app stops working, you likely need to generate a new ARL.
