Core concepts

Apps

An appreports.io tracked app represents a marketplace app discovered through a connector. A tracked app is associated with a connector and has a unique identifier, name, and other metadata. Tracked apps are the primary entities for which reviews and rankings are collected and analyzed.

Connectors

A connector stores the relationship between your appreports.io account and the data source. appreports.io validates a connector, discovers accessible apps, and uses the connector to read customer reviews and rankings for those apps.

Reviews

Reviews are written customer reviews returned by the customer reviews API of the connector. Review data is scoped to the authenticated owner and the tracked app.

Rankings

Rankings are daily chart appearances from the connector's ranking feeds. appreports.io stores ranking observations when a tracked app appears in a synced chart for a territory, chart type, genre, and date.

Refresh cadence

Reviews and rankings are monitored continuously in the background. Ranking observations are daily.

Developer surfaces

The public developer surfaces are read-only:
