Parameters

Query parameters

NameRequiredDescriptionExample
packageyesPlay package name (or a Play Store URL)co.uk.getmondo
countryno2-letter storefront country (default us)gb
languagenoLanguage code (default en)en
sort_bynonewest (default), helpful or ratingnewest
limitnoRequested results, 1–100 (default 100); the source may return fewer. No per-item detail enrichment.100
ratingnoKeep only reviews with this star rating (1-5), applied after the fetch1
cursornoOpaque cursor from the previous page
dry_runnoRead a zero-credit estimate without fetching sources, running AI, or reserving credits. Cache status is a snapshot, not a guarantee at execution.1
judgmentsnoAdd bounded AI labels to eligible returned records (default on). off preserves the original data shape. Unclassified records remain present; labels depend on evidence, time, capacity and the existing request budget. No label surcharge.on
labelnoSet none to disable labels; default enables the endpoint’s label set. Equivalent to judgments=off.none
label_evidencenoInclude exact supporting sentences and zero-based sentence indexes when a label has validated evidence. No extra charge or change to decisions.1
excludenoOptionally remove confidently labelled engagement bait. Uncertain and unclassified records stay; removed IDs and an owner-bound recall reference are returned.engagement_bait
fitnoUse goal to replace confidently irrelevant records with recall stubs. Keeps first, last, relevant and uncertain records; preserves order. Full evidence is stored for 24 hours when available.goal
goalnoRequired with fit=goal: describe the task in at most 600 characters. Supplied text is task context, never permission to act on posts.Find concrete product complaints
tokensnoOptional soft response target for fit=goal, 256–32000. Safety and evidence retention take priority, so the returned result may exceed it.4000

Response

Response fields and example

This example is illustrative, not a captured live response. Variable-cost operations may settle a charge different from the list price below. A successful response puts the platform payload in data and reports the exact credits used, remaining balance, request id and cache status beside it.

{
  "success": true,
  "platform": "google_play",
  "endpoint": "/v1/google_play/app-reviews",

The example uses fictional values and shows a documented subset of data. The fields below are optional across supported sources; nullable fields can also be absent. Preserve unknown values and accept additional fields.

Download the data JSON Schema. Validate response.data, not the whole envelope. A valid shape does not establish that every field or source record was returned.

items[].idstring | nullSource identifier. Preserve its exact string value; do not convert large IDs to numbers.
items[].textstring | nullReview text.
items[].ratingnumber | nullIndividual review stars on a 1–5 scale.
items[].authorstring | nullReviewer display name.
items[].datestring | nullSource publication time, normalized to an ISO date-time when available.
items[].versionstring | nullApp version associated with the review.
items[].helpfulnumber | nullHelpful votes reported by the source; null or absent is unknown, not zero.
items[].replyobject | nullNested response fields; optional unless explicitly documented.
items[].reply.textstring | nullDeveloper reply.

items[].urlstring | nullOriginal source URL when supplied.

cursorstring | nullOpaque next-page token. A missing token does not prove full history was retrieved.
has_moreboolean | nullSource continuation indicator; null means unknown.
_warningsarrayCollection limitations or component warnings. Read before interpreting coverage.

Failures use the typed error envelope. A confirmed uncharged or refunded failure reports zero; a pending reconciliation can report an unknown charge. Read credits_used and error.details.billing_status, and keep request_id for recovery. Response contract · Error reference
