iTunes Search API - correct language of results


I'm using the iTunes API and I have a problem. I'm searching in den German store (parameter country=de) but the description in the resultset is English. Does someone know a workaround to get the German description. It's available, the iTunes store direct shows the German description. It tried to use the "lang" parameter, but it's defined that only "en_us" & "ja_jp" are possible values. I depend on the official documentation of apple.

Here is the API Call: http://itunes.apple.com/search?term=angry+birds&country=de&entity=software

And for the first result, here is the detail page in iTunes web: http://itunes.apple.com/de/app/angry-birds/id343200656?mt=8&uo=4


Sorry, I got it by myself...

You have to use

http://itunes.apple.com/de/search?term=angry+birds&country=de&entity=software


Solution

  • prepend the URL path with /de like so:

    http://itunes.apple.com/de/search?term=angry+birds&country=de&entity=software
