Hello everyone,
Recently I was asked to pull our sales data into our system on a daily bases, since there is a direct API to do that, it seemed a trivial task, but this quickly turned into a rabbit hole.
requesting sales reports from the following API link
https://api.appstoreconnect.apple.com/v1/salesReports
can some one please elaborate on explaining the meanings of some fields? I know the meanings of the fields since they are well documented, but:
1- why is the number of units some times it's 1 and some times it goes in hundreds ? we don't sell the items in quantity of more than 1, and when the units are more than one, the developer proceeds is not multiplied by the units count
2- Developer proceeds should be 70% since apple takes 30% cut and 85% when the user has been subsribed for more than one year, that's never the case!
most of the records give us 60% and 70% WHEN it's more than one year subscription, regardless of the currency or the count, it's never solid number, always 61.4% or some weird number that I couldn't explain
3- as I understood there is no way to pull the financial reports from the API, making this task impossible without the currency exchange
thank you in advance
