+            
+Audio version 2.3.0+ brings you access to the **Global Audio API**, `[p]help audioset globalapi` for more info, this **API is disabled by default and will never be enabled until you manually enable it**.
+
+This API will allow your to use the Spotify functionally of Audio with a much smaller YouTube API key, as it will attempt to look for results in the API before using your key.
+This API will also be help your bot by reducing the likelihood of YouTube rate-limiting your bot for making requests too often.
+
+To use this API **you will be required to have an access token**, to obtain this token please join <https://discordapp.com/invite/zkmDzhs> and read the instructions there.
+Note: Just like any request your bot makes this service will be able to see your bot IP, your IP is not used for anything in the server but we felt that disclosing this to potential user is an important step since the service is managed by Draper and Cog-Creators org.
+
+Since I'm already setting this message, I would highly recommend that you enable your local cache if you havent yet, to do so you can run `[p]audioset cache 5` this cache only stores metadata so it shouldn't use up a lot of space, how ever it will make repeated audio requests faster and further reduce the likelihook of YouTube rate limiting your bot."""
