prism

One app across Google Play + the App Store: resolved, title-matched, and compared into a cross-store rating + listing report.

Resolves an app on both stores (by title, or directly via google_play_id/app_store_id), judges whether the two listings are the same app (so a Korean title matches its English listing and two same-named-but-different apps aren't conflated; the older title + developer string guard is the fallback, and match_threshold still applies it when you pass one), and folds the two listings into a cross-store comparison: per-store rating + install + price, the rating gap, and a match confidence. A clean no-match across stores is a valid (fully-charged) result; if neither store resolves the title → 404 + refund; both stores dead → full refund.

URL: https://www.socialcrawl.dev/v1/prism/apps-lookup
Auth: API key in header x-api-key

Query parameters

titlestring

The app title to resolve across both stores. (one of: title, google_play_id, app_store_id; at least one required)

google_play_idstring

Google Play app id to anchor that store directly. (one of: title, google_play_id, app_store_id; at least one required)

app_store_idstring

App Store app id to anchor that store directly. (one of: title, google_play_id, app_store_id; at least one required)

storesstring

CSV subset of google_play,app_store (default both).

countrystring

Store country.

languagestring

Store language.

match_thresholdstring

Title-similarity threshold for the cross-store match guard (0-1, default 0.6).

includestring

CSV subset of merged, similar, developer (default: all three). Naming a subset TRIMS which blocks are computed; an unknown member or an empty value is a 400.

Headers

Cache-Controlstring

Send no-cache to bypass the response cache and force a live fetch. Billed at the normal endpoint cost; the fresh result is written back to cache for the next caller. Only the no-cache directive triggers this. See the Response Schema guide for details.

Idempotency-Keystring

Optional UUID that makes the request safely retriable. The key is reserved atomically per account before billing. A concurrent retry receives 409 IDEMPOTENCY_IN_PROGRESS with a Retry-After of 1 second while the original is young, growing to a quarter of the time it has been running (at most 30); a crashed reservation expires after 5 minutes. A replay keeps the cached payload immutable except for billing metadata: credits_used becomes 0, idempotent_replay becomes true, and credits_remaining is refreshed to the current balance. A known current balance appears in both the body and X-Credits-Remaining header; no balance row resolves to 0. On a transient lookup failure, body credits_remaining is null and X-Credits-Remaining is omitted. Completed outcomes expire after 24 hours. If the claim store is unavailable, the request fails closed before billing. GET endpoints do not combine idempotent replay with Server-Sent Events: use Accept: application/json when sending this header. The unsupported key-plus-SSE combination is rejected before billing.

Response

Successful response

successboolean required

Whether the request succeeded

platformstring required

Platform name

endpointstring required

API endpoint path

credits_usedinteger required

Number of credits consumed

credits_remaininginteger nullable required

Current account balance, or null when this response could not establish one. Free cache hits always return null because they do not establish an authoritative post-request balance. An idempotency replay also returns null when its current-balance lookup fails. It is never a fabricated zero, so a zero here means the account really is empty. The authoritative reading is the one on a billed response, which comes straight from the deduction.

request_idstring required

Unique request identifier for support

cachedboolean required

Whether the response was served from cache

idempotent_replayboolean

True only when this response is an idempotency replay
