# RuStore

> Connect your RuStore apps to manage and reply to reviews

AppReply connects to RuStore through its developer API using an API key with RSA-SHA512 authentication. Once connected, you can read and reply to reviews directly from your dashboard.

## Prerequisites

Before you begin, make sure you have:

* An active [RuStore Developer Console](https://console.rustore.ru) account
* Your app published on RuStore
* Permission to generate API keys in the Console

## Step-by-step integration

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open the RuStore Developer Console">
    Go to [console.rustore.ru](https://console.rustore.ru) and sign in with your developer account.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Navigate to API settings">
    In the left sidebar, go to **Company > API RuStore**. This is where you create and manage your API access keys.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Generate an API key">
    Click **Generate a key**. You will be asked to select which apps and methods the key should have access to.

    <Warning>
      Make sure to include **"Working with reviews"** in the selected methods. Without this, AppReply will not be able to read or reply to your reviews.
    </Warning>

    After generating the key, copy the **Key ID** and the **Private Key**. You will need both values in the next step.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Enter credentials in AppReply">
    1. Log in to [AppReply](https://appreply.co)
    2. Go to **Applications**
    3. Click the three dots next to your RuStore app and select **Integrate**
    4. Enter your **Key ID**
    5. Paste your **Private Key** into the text area
    6. Click **Complete Integration**

    AppReply will verify your credentials against the RuStore API. If verification succeeds, your app's name, icon, and developer info will be populated automatically.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Adding a RuStore app

If your RuStore app is not yet listed in AppReply, you can add it manually:

1. Go to **Applications** and click **Add App**
2. Scroll to the **Add from other stores** section
3. Select **RuStore**
4. Search for your app by name, or enter the **Package Name** manually
5. Click **Add App**, then integrate using the steps above

<Tip>
  The Package Name is the same Android package name used in Google Play (e.g., `com.example.myapp`). You can find it in the RuStore Developer Console on your app's details page.
</Tip>

## Verification

After completing the integration, AppReply will:

1. Verify your API key credentials
2. Test the connection to RuStore
3. Begin syncing your reviews (usually within 5-15 minutes)

## Troubleshooting

* **Invalid credentials**: Double-check the Key ID and make sure the Private Key was pasted completely, including any header and footer lines.
* **Permission errors**: Confirm that "Working with reviews" is included in the methods selected for your API key. You can check this in **Company > API RuStore** in the Console.
* **App not found**: Verify that the Package Name matches exactly. RuStore uses the same Android package name format (e.g., `com.example.myapp`).
* **Need a new key**: If your key is compromised or lost, generate a new one in the RuStore Developer Console and update the credentials in AppReply.

## Security notes

* Your credentials are encrypted before being stored
* AppReply only accesses the review-related portions of the RuStore API
* You can revoke access at any time by deleting the API key in the RuStore Developer Console
