如何从Playstore中的应用获取权限信息？

Question

I'm developing a python crawler to retrieve some information from apps in Play Store. My crawler retrieves the app rating, developer and so on, but not the permissions. That's because Google uses a fake-link and there is no html to catch. Does anyone know how to get this information? Any help is welcome!

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

It is impossible to get the permissions details by scrapping the play store page.

You must use an inspection tool (I use mozilla). As you mention above, if you try to inspect the button element you will see the fake link class="content id-view-permissions-details fake-link". But if you press on " View Details " link, and inspect the pop-up that appears, you will find this element: class="permissions-container bucket-style" If you select right click and "Edit as HTML" you will see all the info you need:

     <div tabindex="0" jstcache="71" class="permissions-container bucket-style"> <div jstcache="72" class="permissions-heading" style="display:none"> This app has access to: </div> <div jstcache="73" class="permissions-heading"> Version <jsl jstcache="74">1.50.2</jsl> can access: </div> <div jstcache="75" jsinstance="0" class="permission-bucket"> <div jstcache="87" class="bucket-icon-and-title"> <jsl jstcache="110"><jsl jstcache="111"> <span class="icon billing"></span> <span class="bucket-title"> In-app purchases </span> </jsl><jsl jstcache="112" style="display:none"> <span class="icon history"></span> <span class="bucket-title"> Device &amp;

The best way to retrieve the information you want is to do an HTTP POST request to the url: https://play.google.com/store/xhr/ructx?authuser=0 with parameters:

id "id=com.kiloo.subwaysurf"

xhr "1"

hl "en" //for English

You can find all the headers from the inspection tool:

HOST "play.google.com"

ACCEPT "text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9, / ;q=0.8"

CONTENT-TYPE "application/x-www-form-urlencoded;charset=utf-8"

REFERER " https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kiloo.subwaysurf&hl=en "

Then you can use any API you want to send the POST request. For ease, I used curl:

    curl --data "ids=com.kiloo.subwaysurf&xhr=1&hl=en" https://play.google.com/store/xhr/getdoc?authuser=0 --silent

But python has a great API for HTTP requests. The difficult part will be to parse the response in a automated way. The result is JSON and I don't know how google parses it to human readable information.
