You can mail us anytime if you face any issues using this API or have any feature suggestions or requests.

Field | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
startUrls |
Array |
startUrls Array It is the optional input field to place the Google Play URL list. You must only give developer page, search, or application page links. |
includeReviews |
Boolean |
This input field will add each review that the source platform gives in application objects. Note that the API's resources and time will proportionally increase by the review count. |
endReviewsPage |
Integer |
endReviewsPage Integer It is the optional field to feed the final review count page you wish to scrape. |
proxy |
Object |
Proxy configuration |
Using this API would help if you used proxy servers to scrape data. You can use your proxy or try the Real Data API proxy.
If you wish to extract many application reviews, use endReviewsPage. Though this API can scrape all the reviews, the total resource consumption will increase significantly.
The API is optimized to extract more and more details quickly. Hence it forefronts each detail request. If Google Play doesn't block this API, it will scrape a hundred apps within a minute with 0.001 to 0.003 compute units.

"startUrls":[
"https://play.google.com/store/search?q=hello&c=apps&hl=tr&gl=US",

The API will give you output messages about what's happening. Every message includes a short specifications label to inform which page the API is scraping. After loading items from the page, you must read a message about this activity with the total item count and loaded item count for every page.
If you give the wrong input to the API, it will fail to execute and give you the failure reason in the output.
While executing, the API saves the output into a dataset. There are separate columns and rows for each item in the dataset.
You can export outputs in any coding language like NPM, PHP, Python, etc.
The format of all the Google Play applications is below.

in the program using the token of your actor. Read about the live APIs with Real Data API docs for more explanation.
