I would like provide a search for the iPhone apps in my webpage. I have seen various pages where, once the user type the app name a javaScript made dropdownbox gets displayed where the top-hit app gets listed , so that the user can select one or multiple app from the list. I want the slimier environment in my webpage.
Did apple prove any api for getting the entire list of app? Also once the app gets selected by the user I should be able to get the appid that will be usually displayed on the appstore site url.
You can use the iTunes affiliate API for these sort of calls.
Here is an example call to search for all apps named "activeside"
https://itunes.apple.com/search?term=activeside&entity=software
The documentation for the iTunes API is at the following URL:
