## Pricing

Pay per usage

This Actor is paid per platform usage. The Actor is free to use, and you only pay for the Apify platform usage, which gets cheaper the higher subscription plan you have.

## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

## StoreBridge Actor

A thin [Apify](https://apify.com) Actor that wraps the **StoreBridge REST API** — one
normalized schema over the **Apple App Store** and **Google Play** — and pushes each
normalized record to the run's dataset.

It does not scrape anything itself. It calls the deployed StoreBridge API
(`https://storebridge-api.vercel.app/v1`, overridable via `STOREBRIDGE_BASE_URL`) using the
Apify route group's bearer token (`STOREBRIDGE_API_TOKEN`), then relays and meters the
results.

### Input modes

Set `mode` in the input:

| Mode | What it fetches | Key inputs |
|---|---|---|
| `search` | Unified app search results | `term`, `store`, `country`, `limit` |
| `appDetails` | Full normalized app details (40+ fields) | `appIds`, `store`, `country` |
| `reviews` | Paginated reviews (Apple ≤ 500/app/country, Google deep) | `appIds`, `store`, `maxReviews` |
| `charts` | Top-chart / ranking rows | `chartType` (free/paid/grossing), `category`, `store`, `limit` |

`store` can be `apple`, `google`, or `both`. `both` fans out to both stores for `search`
and `appDetails`; for `reviews` and `charts` (which are single-store upstream) the Actor
runs each store in turn.

### Pay-per-event pricing

This Actor is billed **pay-per-event (PPE)** — a flat charge per run plus a charge per
object produced. Prices are declared in `.actor/actor.json` (`pricingInfo`) and charged
via `Actor.charge()`:

| Event | Charged | Price (USD) |
|---|---|---|
| `actor-start` | once per run | $0.01 |
| `app-detail` | per app-details record | $0.0015 |
| `search-result` | per search result | $0.0008 |
| `review` | per review | $0.0004 |
| `chart-record` | per chart / ranking row | $0.0003 |
| `aso-keyword` | per ASO keyword row | $0.002 |

Apify's standard **$5/mo free credit** on paid plans acts as the free tier
(≈ 3,300 app details/mo).

### Environment

| Var | Purpose | Default |
|---|---|---|
| `STOREBRIDGE_BASE_URL` | StoreBridge API base host | `https://storebridge-api.vercel.app` |
| `STOREBRIDGE_API_TOKEN` | Bearer token for the Apify route group | — (recommended) |

### Example input

```json
{
  "mode": "search",
  "store": "both",
  "term": "budget app",
  "country": "us",
  "limit": 50
}
```

# Actor input Schema

## `mode` (type: `string`):

What to fetch. 'search' needs term; 'appDetails'/'reviews' need appIds; 'charts' needs chartType.

## `store` (type: `string`):

Which store to query. 'both' fans out to Apple + Google for search and app details; reviews and charts run per store.

## `country` (type: `string`):

ISO-3166 alpha-2 storefront / region (lowercase).

## `term` (type: `string`):

Search term or ASO seed. Required for mode = search.

## `appIds` (type: `array`):

Apple trackIds (e.g. 389801252) or Google package names (e.g. com.whatsapp). Required for mode = appDetails or reviews.

## `chartType` (type: `string`):

Top-chart feed. Used for mode = charts.

## `category` (type: `string`):

Optional. Apple genre id (e.g. 6007) or Google category constant (e.g. PRODUCTIVITY). Used for mode = charts.

## `limit` (type: `integer`):

Max results for search and charts (Apple search is clamped to 50).

## `maxReviews` (type: `integer`):

Max reviews to collect per app for mode = reviews (Apple is hard-capped at 500/app/country).

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "mode": "search",
  "store": "both",
  "country": "us",
  "term": "notes",
  "appIds": [
    "389801252",
    "com.whatsapp"
  ],
  "chartType": "free",
  "limit": 50,
  "maxReviews": 200
}
```

# Actor output Schema

## `results` (type: `string`):

Default dataset containing normalized app search results, app details, reviews, or chart records for the selected mode. Each record includes its type and mode.

# API

You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup.

## JavaScript example

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
    "country": "us",
    "term": "notes",
    "appIds": [
        "389801252",
        "com.whatsapp"
    ],
    "limit": 50,
    "maxReviews": 200
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("isaiahdupree33/storebridge").call(input);

// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
console.log('Results from dataset');
console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
items.forEach((item) => {
    console.dir(item);
});

client = ApifyClient("<YOUR_API_TOKEN>")

# Prepare the Actor input
run_input = {
    "country": "us",
    "term": "notes",
    "appIds": [

    "limit": 50,
    "maxReviews": 200,
}

# Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
run = client.actor("isaiahdupree33/storebridge").call(run_input=run_input)

# Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if there are any)
print(f"💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/{run.default_dataset_id}")
for item in client.dataset(run.default_dataset_id).iterate_items():

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{
  "country": "us",
  "term": "notes",
  "appIds": [
    "389801252",
    "com.whatsapp"
  ],
  "limit": 50,
  "maxReviews": 200
}' |
apify call isaiahdupree33/storebridge --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,isaiahdupree33/storebridge"
        }
    }
}
```

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
