File-based Metadata Upload
The best way to upload metadata for many different locales is via file-based upload. App Manager accepts xlsx and json files containing your metadata.
Use the following fields as your column header (xlsx) or property (json):
Field | Description | Character limit |
language | locale identifier | - |
name | name of the app | 30 |
subtitle | subtitle of the app | 30 |
promotional_text | promo text of | 170 |
description | app store description | 4000 |
whats_new | release notes | 4000 |
keywords | comma separated keywords | 100 |
software_url | marketing link to developer | 255 |
support_url | support link to developer | 255 |
privacy_url | link to privacy policy | 255 |
Use the following fields as your column header (xlsx) or property (json):
Field | Description | Character limit |
language | locale identifier | - |
title | name of the app | 50 |
short_description | short description | 80 |
long_description | app store description | 4000 |
whats_new | release notes | 500 |
video | YouTube Link | - |
Use the supported language identifiers so languages can get mapped correctly.
Your file can contain languages not yet active on App Store Connect/Google Play Dev Console. AppManager will activate them automatically for you, when you upload your app.
When importing the document, all fields will get shorten to their maximum character limit
To get an Excel document with the correct format, simply download your existing metadata. Click on the "Download existing metadata" button on your app's metadata page.
