Appfigures API: Access, Limits, and Add-ons

The Appfigures API gives you programmatic access to tons of data—from app and store performance to metadata and more.


The Basics


If you have an Appfigures account, you can start using the API for free to get data on the apps you’re already tracking. Everything you see in your Appfigures reports is also available through the API.


Daily Call Limits


By default, every account gets 1,000 API requests per day for free. If you need more, you can easily increase your limit. Packages range from 2,500 to 50,000 requests per day. Just head to Manage > API Access and pick the package that works best for you.


Replying to Reviews


Want to reply to App Store or Google Play reviews programmatically? You’ll need an add-on that comes with the Grow plan.


Additional Access


Some API features go beyond the free tier. Here’s what you should know:


Public Data Access


The API lets you search and get data for any app, not just the ones you track. You can:


  • Search apps by metadata
  • View ratings and ranks
  • See featured placements
  • Read reviews, and more


Accessing data for apps you don’t track uses credits. Each request costs one or more credits, which you can buy in packages. If you run out, the API will tell you how many credits you need.


To purchase credits, you'll need Grow or aove, and to enable the Public Data API Add-on, and you can even set up automatic top-ups.


Public Data Credits Per Route:


  1. Product metadata → 2
  2. Extended metadata → 5 credits (7 in total with Product metadata included)
  3. Ratings → 3
  4. Featured5
  5. Reviews3
  6. Ranks (single app) → 5
  7. Ranks (Top list) → 10
  8. ASO → 5 credits


Data Processors & Resellers


You can use the API internally without restrictions. But if you want to resell App Store data, you’ll need a partnership agreement with Appfigures.
