About SearchMan
SearchMan’s App Store API is designed so that you can query the iOS App Store and Google Play in any way you want. You can fetch category rankings for all categories, search rankings for any keyword and find app metadata for all apps in the store. SearchMan’s App Store API is organized around REST. JSON will be returned in all responses from the API, including errors (though if you use API bindings, we will convert the response to the appropriate language-specific object). You authenticate to the SearchMan API by providing one of your API keys as a GET parameter in the request. Your API keys carry many privileges, so be sure to keep them secret! Each API request consumes “credits”. You can see how many credits each API requires here. Most of our API requires 1 credit per API request. We provide 2 patterns of appObject based on the need. appObjectDetail contains all metadata for the app, while appObject contains less data.
