Datasets API endpoint
Searches daily top-chart snapshots from the iOS App Store and Google Play (one document per chart × snapshot × rank). With no `date` the latest snapshot is returned (today's chart); pair `app_id` with `sort=date_desc` for an app's rank over time. Store enum: `ios`, `android`. Chart type enum: `top_free`, `top_paid`, `top_grossing`, `new`. Platform enum (Apple device platforms, ios charts only): `phone`, `pad`, `mac`. Sort enum: `rank`, `rank_desc`, `date_desc`. Billing: this search costs 1 credit per record returned, with a minimum of 2 (an empty result costs 2, a full page of 100 costs 100).
/datasets/apps-charts/searchSearches daily top-chart snapshots scraped from the iOS App Store and Google Play, stored in a search index. One document per chart × snapshot × rank, so re-crawls accumulate a time series: today's chart, an app's rank over time, and day-over-day movers. Returns structured ranking records (rank, app id, title, developer, store, chart type, category, country, snapshot date) without triggering live scraping.

Pair with sort=date_desc for an app's rank over time.date: optional snapshot date filter, yyyy-MM-dd. Defaults to the latest available snapshot (today's chart).sort: optional sort enum: rank (chart order), rank_desc, date_desc (rank over time). Defaults to rank.page: optional page number, defaults to 1.page_size: optional page size, defaults to 20 and maxes at 100.Response behavior:
date (and no single-app history request) the latest snapshot is resolved automatically, so the default response is today's chart in rank order.snapshot_date so callers know which day was returned.10000; page * page_size must not exceed 10000.items list rather than an error.platform field (see platform enum above); Android entries leave it empty.GAME and FAMILY app categories.1 credit per record returned, minimum 2. A search that returns 20 records costs 20 credits, a full page of 100 costs 100, and an empty or one-record result costs 2. You are charged for what comes back, not for the page_size you ask for, but your balance must cover the requested page_size for the call to be accepted. The response header x-credit-cost shows what a call was charged.
