Yes, Airbyte previously offered an Apple App Store (Appstore) source connector. However, this connector has been deprecated as of March 5th, 2024, and is no longer supported or available for use in Airbyte. The deprecation is due to incompatibility with upcoming platform updates and the connector's lack of support for new per-stream features required for data integrity in Airbyte's synchronization processes. If you still need to sync data from the Apple App Store, Airbyte recommends creating a custom connector as an alternative. You can find guidance on building custom connectors in the [Custom Connector documentation](https://docs.airbyte.com/connector-development/) [Appstore (Archived)](https://docs.airbyte.com/integrations/sources/appstore#appstore).
Yes, Airbyte previously offered an "Appstore" source connector for syncing data from the Apple App Store (App Store Connect API). However, this connector has been archived and is scheduled for deprecation as of March 5th, 2024. It is no longer supported or available for use in Airbyte due to incompatibility with upcoming platform updates. Users are advised to create a custom connector if they still need to sync data from the Apple App Store. Guidance for building custom connectors is available in the [Custom Connector documentation](https://docs.airbyte.com/connector-development/connector-builder-ui/overview) and [Connector Development documentation](https://docs.airbyte.com/platform/connector-development/) [Appstore (Archived)](https://docs.airbyte.com/integrations/sources/appstore#appstore). If you are looking for a connector for Apple Search Ads (not the App Store), Airbyte does have an active connector for that use case [Apple Search Ads](https://docs.airbyte.com/integrations/sources/apple-search-ads#apple-ads-apple-search-ads).
