One extension's store page, straight from the store — any extension,
tracked by this account or not.
Copy comes back as readable text: AMO serves HTML, and its tags,
entities and redirector URLs are stripped so a description reads as
prose rather than as markup. Chrome's copy is already text and is
passed through unchanged.
This is the competitor-research and copy-review tool: full description,
supported languages, category, install count, rating, and version, in
whichever store language you ask for. Chrome listings return supported
languages as the store renders them ("Deutsch", "français"); Firefox
returns locale codes ("de", "fr"). That difference is real, not a bug.
Reading a listing never starts tracking it. Signed in, a read of a
Chrome listing already stored here -- tracked by any account, not
just yours -- may add a point to its copy timeline. A guest read
writes no research state, though the call itself is still logged and
rate-limited like any other.
Use get_extension instead for an extension this account tracks, when
you want its recorded numbers over time.
Cached for a day and fetched in the background: a cold call returns
status "pending", so call again with the same arguments until it reads
"ready".
Without an account this answers from cache only: a listing nobody has
fetched yet returns status "sign_in_required", and calling again will
not change that.
