App Store Trends API tools (4)
write = sends, deletes, buys or poststrends___get_growthFreePoint-to-point growth for a keyword on one or more sources. Each window is a preset string (12M, 3M, YTD, and the other listed periods). Values are on a 0-100 scale, plus absolute volume when available. Designed for growth questions; for charting or custom math, get_time_series provides the full series. app downloads and app rankings are keyword sources (Android bundle ID). They are not the App Store / Google Play live boards on get_top_trends. Returns a plan-limit message when the request is rate limited or the monthly quota is used up.
trends___get_time_seriesFreeFull historical series for one keyword and one source (0-100 values, plus volume when available). Suited for charting or custom math. Live 'what's trending now' boards are on get_top_trends. get_growth answers most growth questions with less data. Returns a plan-limit message when the request is rate limited or the monthly quota is used up.
trends___get_top_postsFreeLive top posts for one hashtag on one social source. Fetched live on every call; nothing is stored. For when the user already has a hashtag and wants the posts winning on it. get_top_trends ranks the hashtags themselves. Returns a plan-limit message when the request is rate limited or the monthly quota is used up.
trends___get_top_trendsFreeLive top-trending board for exactly one feed type. No keyword. For 'Amazon Best Sellers by Category', 'Google Trends by Category', 'Top Websites', 'Substack by Category', and 'TikTok Trending Hashtags by Category', category selects the board. Default sort is current rank. Use sort='rank_change' for climbers vs a prior snapshot (window 1d, 3d, 7d, 14d, or 30d). If the requested board is not in the database yet (for example a country that is not collected on the schedule), the board is fetched live. App Store Top Free, App Store Top Paid, and Google Play are live store boards, not keyword lookups. App history is available via get_growth or get_time_series with source app downloads or app rankings and an Android bundle ID. Live boards are only available here, not via get_time_series. Returns a plan-limit message when the request is rate limited or the monthly quota is used up.

What the publisher says
From the App Store Trends API repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub
App Store and Google Play chart API
App Store and Google Play demand via the Trends API. Android download history plus live iOS and Play charts.
Key: trendsapi.ai/#get-key. HTTP contract and every source: trendsapi-ai/trendsapi.
Authentication
pip install trendsapi-app-store
export TRENDSAPI_KEY=your_keyPython 3.9+. Same key as the HTTP API.
from trendsapi_app_store import TrendsAPI
client = TrendsAPI() # TRENDSAPI_KEY
# client = TrendsAPI(api_key="YOUR_KEY")Keyword helpers default to source: "app downloads". Pass source= to hit any other platform with the same client. Official full client (every source, no preset): trendsapi.
Methods
source is lowercase (app downloads). type is exact (App Store Top Free). Mixing them is a 400.
from trendsapi_app_store import TrendsAPI
client = TrendsAPI() # TRENDSAPI_KEY
# client = TrendsAPI(api_key="YOUR_KEY")
series = client.get_time_series("com.openai.chatgpt")
print(series[-1].date, series[-1].value)
growth = client.get_growth("com.openai.chatgpt", percent_growth=["3M", "12M"])
print(growth.results[0].growth, growth.results[0].direction)
hot = client.get_live(limit=10)
print(hot.data) # [[1, "..."], ...]gettimeseries
points = client.get_time_series("com.openai.chatgpt")Each point:
Python returns list[TrendsDataPoint]. Use .date and .value, not ["date"]. JS returns the same fields as object properties.
get_growth
g = client.get_growth("com.openai.chatgpt", percent_growth=["12M", "3M", "YTD"])
print(g.results[0].growth, g.results[0].direction)percent_growth default: ["12M"]. Presets: 7D 14D 30D 1M 2M 3M 6M 9M 12M/1Y 18M 24M/2Y 36M/3Y 48M 60M/5Y MTD QTD YTD. Custom: {"name": "Launch", "recent": "2024-06-01", "baseline": "2024-01-01"}.
Several windows still count as one request. Python: growth.results[0].growth. JS: growth.results[0].growth.
get_live
hot = client.get_live(limit=10)Python: hot.data. JS: hot.data. Optional offset= and category= (Amazon Best Sellers by Category, Top Websites only).
