Google Play API

Google Play Store app search, details, reviews, permissions, data safety, and developer catalogs — one plain HTTP GET per call, paid as you go. No Play Console access, no developer account, no scraping the storefront HTML.

Base URL: https://googleplay.fetcher.sh

Authentication

Two ways to pay, same data — full mechanics in the fetcher skill:

# 1. Prepaid credits (recommended — get a key at https://fetcher.sh/topup
#    or via POST /api/credits/topup, see the fetcher skill)
export FETCHER_API_KEY="bby_live_xxxxxxxxxxxx"
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $FETCHER_API_KEY" \
  "https://googleplay.fetcher.sh/api/apps?search=meditation"

# 2. x402 pay-per-call — omit the header; a GET with no payment returns 402
#    with machine-readable payment requirements (USDC on Base, Polygon,
#    Arbitrum, Monad, or Solana). @x402/fetch signs and retries automatically.

Every response is { "status": number, "message": string, "data": ... }; the HTTP status mirrors status.

Endpoints (7 — all GET, $0.003/call)

Endpoint	What it returns
/api/apps	Apps matching a keyword; price and country filters
/api/apps/{appId}	An app's full details
/api/apps/{appId}/reviews	An app's reviews
/api/apps/{appId}/similar	Apps similar to a given app
/api/apps/{appId}/permissions	An app's requested permissions
/api/apps/{appId}/datasafety	An app's data safety disclosure
/api/developers/{developerId}	A developer's full app catalog

Required on search: search. Optional: price (all, free, paid), country, lang. Reviews require country; optional sort (NEWEST, RATING, HELPFULNESS).
