I've been working on retrieving total app installs via the Apple Connect API using Python. However, I've noticed a discrepancy between the data obtained manually and the API results.
When I download the Sales & Trends report manually with these settings:
Sales & Trends, Monthly, By Territory, Total Installs
…the results don't match those from the API when I use the following parameters
python
report_date = '2024-09'
params = {
"filter[frequency]": "MONTHLY",
"filter[reportDate]": report_date, # Date for the report
"filter[reportSubType]": "SUMMARY",
"filter[reportType]": "SALES",
"filter[vendorNumber]": vendor_number
}
I’m seeing a clear mismatch in units between the manual download and the API output
