Look up one Android app on Google Play by package name and get its version, minimum Android version, price, ads, in-app purchases, rating histogram and privacy policy. Pass the value after ?id= in the Play URL, such as com.example.app, not the full link.

Price $1.39 per 1,000 requests ($0.001389 per call). Failed calls and empty results are not charged. Synchronous. For slow jobs add "mode": "async" to the body, take the job_id and poll.

AI prompt

Paste this into your AI assistant. It already holds this endpoint's parameters, response fields and an example request, so the assistant can ask what you need and then write the scraper.

Please help me write a data collection script with the EveryInfra Google Play Details endpoint (google_play/profile).

Endpoint contract:
- Request: POST https://api.everyinfra.com/api/v1/social with the header Authorization: Bearer <API key>. Read the key from the EVERYINFRA_API_KEY environment variable and never hard-code it.
- In the request body, set platform to google_play and action to profile, and put the parameters inside params.
- Required parameters:
  - app_id: The Android package name from the ?id= value of a Play Store URL, such as com.example.app. It is not an Apple App Store numeric ID. Pass the package name, not the full Play URL.
- Optional parameters:
  - country: Selects the Google Play storefront country or region using a lowercase code such as us. The default is us. It changes the app storefront being queried, not the user's phone region or the developer's nationality.
  - language: Selects the language used for Play Store content and review queries, such as en or zh. The default is en. It does not change country automatically or guarantee that every returned review was written in that language.
- Returns one object. Main fields: app_id, url, name, summary, description, developer, developer_email, developer_website, score, rating_count, review_count, installs; 29 fields in total, full list at https://api.everyinfra.com/api/v1/social/catalog?platform=google_play.
- Example request body:
{
  "platform": "google_play",
  "action": "profile",
  "params": {
    "app_id": "com.whatsapp"
  }
}
- Price: $1.39 per 1,000 requests; failed and empty results are not charged.
- For dozens or hundreds of targets, add "mode": "async" to the body: you get a job_id at once and poll GET https://api.everyinfra.com/api/v1/jobs/{job_id} for the result.
- On 422, fix the request using the suggested parameter names and allowed values in the error; on 429 or 503, wait for Retry-After and try again.

Before writing code, ask me which targets I need, how many, which fields, and what output format I want; then confirm the plan and the rough cost with me.

Errors and billing

401
Missing or invalid key. Authentication runs before parameter checks, so unauthenticated requests never see the parameter schema.
422
Wrong parameter name or value. The error lists the parameters and allowed values this capability accepts and the closest match; it happens before any charge.
402
Insufficient balance. Top up first.
429
The account's per-minute request limit was reached (all of its API keys count together; a key's own lower limit applies first). Wait for Retry-After and try again; a rate package in the console raises the limit.
503
Could not complete right now. Any charge for the call goes back to your balance automatically, and the billing receipt in the response states the actual outcome, including when it is not yet known. Do not resend blindly.
200 empty
The request completed without data and is not charged (billing.reason = empty_result_refunded).
