Questions

FAQ

How do I use the App Store Search API?

Send a POST request to https://api.sandbase.ai/v1/api/app-store/search with your SandBase API key in the Authorization header (Bearer) and the parameters as a JSON body. You can also try it in the Playground on this page without writing code.

How much does the App Store Search API cost?

$0.0002 per call. Every organization gets 100 free calls per UTC day, shared across eligible SandBase APIs including this one; after that each call is billed at this price from your SandBase balance. There is no subscription.

What parameters does the App Store Search API accept?

Required: term (string). Optional: num (integer), lang (string), device (one of mobile, tablet, desktop), country (string), property (one of developer) and category_id (integer) and 1 more. The Parameters table and the Playground on this page list every field.

What does the App Store Search API return?

A JSON result. This endpoint runs asynchronously, so the response tells you how to fetch the finished result.

Do I need a App Store developer account or API key?

No. App Store Search runs through SandBase, so one SandBase API key covers this endpoint and every other API and model in the catalog. You do not need to apply for App Store API access separately.
