# Get a recording's publishing in full

> Up to 25 recordings by ISRC plus the territories to report collection for, the recordings' musical works out in full: each work's ISWC, its ownership as publisher and writer lists, and what is collectible in each requested territory.

`territory_list` scopes `collection` and nothing else - which works a recording resolves to does not depend on territory.

Shares come back as band labels. The precise numbers are a separately priced add-on: set `options.exact_ownership` if your key carries it, otherwise the option is a 403.

    Read the publishing side of the Musixmatch catalog: given a recording, who
    administers and owns its musical works; given a musical work, which
    recordings exist of it; given a writer, which works are credited to them.


    Every method answers over HTTP 200. The outcome of the call is
    `message.header.status_code`, and a 4xx carries a prose `hint` beside a
    machine-readable `hint_code`.
