App store review & rating API for Google Play & iOS

Contents

The Appbot API lets you monitor and analyze app reviews any way you like.

Appbot offers a RESTful app review API with its review management services which allows you to access your app reviews programmatically, and output the data in JSON format. Appbot’s app review service supports the Google Play, iOS, Windows and Amazon app stores.

Purchasing the Appbot API add-on also gives you access to our Tableau Web Data Connector, so you can send app review data straight from Appbot into Tableau.

Popular uses of the app store rating API include:

Building reports that aggregate data for multiple apps.
Creating your own custom alerts for changes in Star Rating, Review Volume, mentions of specific Words, or Topics that our review management services don’t offer natively.
Pushing Google Play, Amazon, Windows and iOS apps review into business intelligence or big data tools.
Input Appbot data into CRMs that Appbot does not natively integrate with (see a list of our integrations here)
Use of the Tableau Web Data Connector
