Grab MP3 using HttpService

Is there a way to grab mp3 from HttpService and load it into file to get temporary id, right now I am able to do it but from importing local file

local studioService = game:GetService("StudioService")

local file = studioService:PromptImportFile({'mp3', 'ogg'})
local temporaryId = file:GetTemporaryId()

But how to get it using HttpService

Because right now I get things like this

{
                    ["Body"] = "ID3..."
}

I dont know what does it called, binary or idk.

… Nah, you can’t bro. That’s literally impossible to grab an “MP3” File from any website and use it “temporarily” in Roblox. You just can’t bro. That’s impossible.

in roblox, we have rbxassetid://, a unique ID for roblox items and assets, and mp3 files doesn’t have… a unique roblox ID

so as @metat3ble said, you can’t just directly import it to roblox.

could you logically tell me how?

unless you make a bot that sends a query to roblox to upload the selected file (without moderating it and other stuff i wont mention), the file gets accepted, the bot copied its id, and pastes it in a sound instance.

Roblox moderation isn’t always great that’s why Roblox cleared out the Marketplace of Sounds and doesn’t allow most users to create new!

that’s my main point lol

let’s say your file has some… questionable sounds, do you think a bot, that thousands of people at roblox put time and effort into making it perfect (i think) wouldnt detect it??

i would doubt that

Uhhh? Every user can upload a sound file into Roblox. Why did you say that “almost all of users” can’t upload a sound into Roblox?

I mean, MAYBE you can do that in Roblox Studio, but in an real Roblox server, nah, you can’t.

They can’t make it public to all users that’s what I meant!

Yes, its possible to do it in roblox studio plugin. I think you can only prompt user to select mp3 file then you can read from it. I saw MIDI plugin do something similiar to this basicially it would take your mp3 file to roblox studio and then convert it to MIDI and the MIDI would play in live servers. (of course this is kind of not allowed because it bypasses roblox moderation when uploading audio)

Well I know it’s working if it’s Prompt Input, by my topic is about getting it using HttpService

Thinking about it, you could assign certain keys to sound pitches and send over text keys using HTTPService, but that’d take forever and Roblox would delete your account… Not to mention it couldn’t handle any multitrack song LOL.

Well guess the best method is just to use local file import then? (this is for roblox studio and not for roblox live game).
