How to connect your App Store Connect account to Google Sheets

Add a source on Catchr

Begin by navigating to the Catchr homepage. From there, select 'Source' from the left-hand menu, followed by 'Add a Source' situated at the upper right-hand corner. Choose 'App Store Connect' as the platform you wish to link. Follow the on-screen prompts to authenticate and establish a connection between Catchr and App Store Connect.

Adding a Source on Catchr

Create a New Query

Initiate the process by opening a Google Sheets document and selecting the "Catchr" option from the toolbar. Proceed by clicking on "New Query" to formulate a new query that will facilitate the transfer of your App Store Connect data.

Select Your Data Source

In the query interface, select 'App Store Connect' as your preferred data source. Should your account not be listed, it can be easily added by clicking the "+" icon.

Selecting Your Data Source

Select Your Account(s)

Continue to the 'Select account(s)' tab and select the App Store Connect account(s) from which you intend to import data.

Selecting Your Accounts

Choose Metrics and Dimensions

Advance to the "Metrics" and "Dimensions" segments to pick specific data points for your query. Here are examples of metrics and dimensions from App Store Connect that you might find useful:

Metrics:

  • App Name: Obtain the name of the app.
  • Review Rating: Acquire the review rating.
  • Summary Sales units: Summarized number of units sold, accounting for refunds.
Choosing Metrics

Dimensions:

  • Country: The country from which the app was accessed or purchased.
  • Device: The type of device used for the purchase or app download (e.g., iPhone, iPad).
  • Review Territory: The territory from which a review was submitted.

Select metrics and dimensions that will serve your analysis and reporting objectives best.

Choosing Dimensions

Set Date Range

After identifying the metrics and dimensions, proceed to the "Date Range" tab. Catchr.io provides predefined date ranges like "Last month" and "This year," along with the option to choose custom start and end dates for your data.

Setting the Date Range

Apply Filters

To refine your data, apply filters in the "Filters" tab. Input the desired criteria across the following fields:

  • Field: The parameter name (e.g., country)
  • Operator: The equation operator (e.g., equals)
  • Value: The specified parameter value (e.g., United States)

For instance, to exclusively view data for app interactions originating from the United States, establish a filter with Field = Country, Operator = Equals, and Value = United States.

Applying Filters

Schedule & Customize Data Refreshness

To conclude, navigate to the "Options" tab to set up scheduled automatic updates for your data. Here, you can enable features such as "Appends rows," which incorporates new rows at the end of your data range, and "Combine rows," which refreshes all rows within that span.

Scheduling Data Refresh
