asc-ppp-pricing

PPP pricing (per-territory pricing)

Use this skill to create or update localized pricing across territories based on purchasing power parity (PPP) or your own regional pricing strategy.

Prefer the current high-level flows:

• asc subscriptions setup and asc iap setup for parent creation and pricing, followed by version-scoped metadata commands
• asc subscriptions pricing ... for subscription pricing changes
• asc iap pricing summary and asc iap pricing schedules ... for IAP pricing changes

Preconditions

• Ensure credentials are set (asc auth login or ASC_* env vars).
• Prefer ASC_APP_ID or pass --app explicitly.
• Decide your base territory (usually USA) and baseline price.
• Use asc pricing territories list --paginate if you need supported territory IDs.

Subscription PPP workflow

New subscription: bootstrap the parent and price with setup

Use setup to create the group and subscription, upload the App Review screenshot, materialize the complete equalized price matrix, and set sale availability. Create the API 4.4.1 group and subscription versions afterward; the localization flags on setup use deprecated v1 resources and must not be used for new workflows.

asc subscriptions setup \
  --app "APP_ID" \
  --group-reference-name "Pro" \
  --reference-name "Pro Monthly" \
  --product-id "com.example.pro.monthly" \
  --subscription-period ONE_MONTH \
  --review-screenshot "./review.png" \
  --price "9.99" \
  --price-territory "USA" \
  --territories "USA,CAN,GBR" \
  --no-verify \
  --output json

Capture .groupId and .subscriptionId from the setup JSON, then add version-scoped metadata. --no-verify is intentional here: without deprecated v1 localizations, the parent can remain MISSING_METADATA until the v2 steps finish.

# For one match, reuse .data[0].id. For more than one, stop and require an explicit GROUP_VERSION_ID.

# Otherwise, if and only if the resolved en-US name differs:
asc subscriptions groups versions localizations update --id "GROUP_LOC_ID" --name "Pro"
# Otherwise, do nothing.
