Google Play App Listings Search API

Scrape Google Play App Listings Search data with one API call. Searches DataForSEO's real-time, filterable Google Play listings database by app title (and/or description) and returns a unified AppList. Unlike the store-chart endpoints this one is the ONE true paginator — page with `limit` (≤50) + `offset` (then `offset_token` for deeper) and read the platform-wide `total`. Premium-tier because the upstream bills per returned item. Sourced from DataForSEO's synchronous live App Data database.

How do I query the Google Play app listings database via API?
Send a GET request to /v1/google_play/app-listings-search with a query or title plus optional filters. It queries a paginated listings database rather than the store-ranked app-search surface. Both endpoints use the 2-minute search cache; exact cache hits cost 0 credits, and Cache-Control: no-cache requests a billed refresh.
What makes app-listings-search different from app search?
App search returns current ranked store results. Exact repeat searches may use the 2-minute public cache; cache hits cost 0 credits, and Cache-Control: no-cache requests a billed refresh. App-listings-search queries a stored database with pagination, filters, and a total match count — built for bulk analysis and dataset building rather than store-style lookup.
What does the platform-wide total give me?
Each response includes the total number of matching listings across the database, not just the current page. That total lets you size a result set, paginate confidently, and report how many apps match a filter — unusual for a developer API.
How much does the app listings endpoint cost?
App-listings-search runs on the premium tier at 10 credits per call, reflecting the paginated database query behind it. New accounts get 100 free credits with no card, and an empty result is refunded automatically.
Can I paginate and filter the listings?
Yes. Pagination parameters page through the full result set, and filters narrow listings before the page is returned. Each listing carries its package name, so you can hand results straight to app-info or app-reviews.
