AppTweak’s App Store API comes with ready-made code samples (“recipes”) that help you quickly run the use cases you need. Our “App Metrics Extract” recipe generates CSV files that you can easily use on Google Data Studio (or your favorite BI tool) to create powerful reporting dashboards for your app.
With our new API, you can programmatically pull data on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis. This can come in handy if you want to create regular performance reports to measure your ASO efforts.
Here’s an example of the key app metrics we can track and report on (downloads, revenues, app power, and category ranking) using our new API.
Custom dashboard created on Google Data Studio for the app “Tier” on the App Store (Germany, France, Italy, and the UK: 01/01/2022 to 28/02/2022). Have a look at the dashboard here.
This example allows us to see how ride sharing apps like TIER, Lime or Dott performances are evolving in multiple countries:

1. Copy and paste the recipe into your favorite code editor
Go to the recipe page that contains the full code sample. You can start by copying and pasting the whole code sample into your favorite code editor (visual studio code, sublime text, etc.)
2. Insert your API token
Then, copy your personal API token from the API dashboard (in AppTweak’s ASO tool) and paste it into the code, replacing “YOUR-API-TOKEN”.
3. Select your parameters
Next, you’ll need to identify the apps, metrics, countries, device, and date range on which you would like to report in the dashboard.
💡 Keep in mind that this recipe can extrapolate a maximum of 5 apps per call. If you would like to consider more than 5 apps in your report, you'll need to make multiple calls.
4. Create powerful ASO reporting dashboards
You can now use the CSV file to create dashboards that allow you to effectively report on your app’s performance! Just take a look at this video for an example.
