Microsoft Store submission API for MSI or EXE app
Use the Microsoft Store submission API for MSI or EXE app to programmatically query and create submissions for MSI or EXE apps for your or your organization's Partner Center account. This API is useful if your account manages many apps, and you want to automate and optimize the submission process for these assets. This API uses Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) to authenticate the calls from your app or service.
The following steps describe the end-to-end process of using the Microsoft Store submission API:
- Make sure that you have completed all the prerequisites.
- Before you call a method in the Microsoft Store submission API, obtain an Azure AD access token. After you obtain a token, you have 60 minutes to use this token in calls to the Microsoft Store submission API before the token expires. After the token expires, you can generate a new token.
- Call the Microsoft Store submission API for MSI or EXE app.
Step 1: Complete prerequisites for using the Microsoft Store submission API
Before you start writing code to call the Microsoft Store submission API for MSI or EXE app, make sure that you have completed the following prerequisites.
- You (or your organization) must have an Azure AD directory and you must have Global administrator permission for the directory. If you already use Microsoft 365 or other business services from Microsoft, you already have Azure AD directory. Otherwise, you can create a new Azure AD in Partner Center for no additional charge.
- You must associate an Azure AD application with your Partner Center account and obtain your tenant ID, client ID and key. You need these values to obtain an Azure AD access token, which you will use in calls to the Microsoft Store submission API.
- Prepare your app for use with the Microsoft Store submission API:
- If your app does not yet exist in Partner Center, you must create your app by reserving its name in Partner Center. You cannot use the Microsoft Store submission API to create an app in Partner Center; you must work in Partner Center to create it, and then after that you can use the API to access the app and programmatically create submissions for it.
- Before you can create a submission for a given app using this API, you must first create one submission for the app in Partner Center, including answering the age ratings questionnaire. After you do this, you will be able to programmatically create new submissions for this app using the API.
- If you are creating or updating an app submission and you need to include new package, prepare the package details.
- If you are creating or updating an app submission and you need to include screenshots or images for the Store listing, prepare the app screenshots and images.
How to associate an Azure AD application with your Partner Center account
Before you can use the Microsoft Store submission API for MSI or EXE app, you must associate an Azure AD application with your Partner Center account, retrieve the tenant ID and client ID for the application and generate a key. The Azure AD application represents the app or service from which you want to call the Microsoft Store submission API. You need the tenant ID, client ID and key to obtain an Azure AD access token that you pass to the API.
Note
You only need to perform this task one time. After you have the tenant ID, client ID and key, you can reuse them any time you need to create a new Azure AD access token.
- In Partner Center, associate your organization's Partner Center account with your organization's Azure AD directory.
- Next, from the Users page in the Account settings section of Partner Center, add the Azure AD application that represents the app or service that you will use to access submissions for your Partner Center account. Make sure you assign this application the Manager role. If the application doesn't exist yet in your Azure AD directory, you can create a new Azure AD application in Partner Center.
- Return to the Users page, click the name of your Azure AD application to go to the application settings, and copy down the Tenant ID and Client ID values.
- To add a new key or Client secret, see the following instructions or refer instructions to register app through Azure Portal:
To register your app:
Sign in to the Azure portal.
If you have access to multiple tenants, use the Directories + subscriptions filter in the top menu to switch to the tenant in which you want to register the application.
Search for and select Azure Active Directory.
Under Manage, select App registrations > Select your application.
Select Certificates & secrets > Client secrets > New client secret.
Add a description for your client secret.
Select an expiration for the secret or specify a custom lifetime.
Client secret lifetime is limited to two years (24 months) or less. You can't specify a custom lifetime longer than 24 months.
Note
Microsoft recommends that you set an expiration value of less than 12 months.
Select Add.
Record the secret's value for use in your client application code. This secret value is never displayed again after you leave this page.
Step 2: Obtain an Azure AD access token
Before you call any of the methods in the Microsoft Store submission API for MSI or EXE app, you must first obtain an Azure AD access token that you pass to the Authorization header of each method in the API. After you obtain an access token, you have 60 minutes to use it before it expires. After the token expires, you can refresh the token so you can continue to use it in further calls to the API.
To obtain the access token, follow the instructions in [Service to Service Calls Using Client Credentials]/azure/active-directory/azuread-dev/v1-oauth2-client-creds-grant-flow) to send an HTTP POST to the https://login.microsoftonline.com/<tenant_id>/oauth2/token endpoint. Here is a sample request.
POST https://login.microsoftonline.com/<tenant-id>/oauth2/v2.0/token HTTP/1.1
Host: login.microsoftonline.com
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=utf-8
grant_type=client_credentials
&client_id=<your_client_id>
&client_secret=<your_client_secret>
&scope=https://api.store.microsoft.com/.default
For the tenant_id value in the POST URI and the client_id and client_secret parameters, specify the tenant ID, client ID and the key for your application that you retrieved from Partner Center in the previous section. For the scope parameter, you must specify https://api.store.microsoft.com/.default.
After your access token expires, you can refresh it by following the instructions here.
For examples that demonstrate how to obtain an access token by using C# or Node.js, see the code examples for Microsoft Store submission API for MSI or EXE app.
Step 3: Use the Microsoft Store submission API
After you have an Azure AD access token, you can call methods in the Microsoft Store submission API for MSI or EXE app. The API includes many methods that are grouped into scenarios for apps. To create or update submissions, you typically call multiple methods in a specific order. For information about each scenario and the syntax of each method, see the following sections:
Note
After you obtain an access token, you have 60 minutes to call methods in the Microsoft Store submission API for MSI or EXE app before the token expires.
Base URL
The base URL for the Microsoft Store Submission API for EXE or MSI app is: https://api.store.microsoft.com

Update Current Draft Packages API
Updates package details under current draft submission.
Path [Full Module Update]: /submission/v1/product/{productId}/packages
Method: PUT
Path [Single Package Patch Update]: /submission/v1/product/{productId}/packages/{packageId}
Method: PATCH
API Behavior
In the case of Full Module Update API – entire packages data needs to be present in request for full update of every field. Any field which is not present in request, its default value is used to overwrite current value for that specific module. This results in overwriting of all existing packages with a new set of packages from request. This will result in regeneration of Package Ids and user should call GET Packages API for latest Package Ids.
In the case of Single Package Patch Update API – only fields which are to be updated for a given package need to be present in request. These field values from request will overwrite their existing values, keeping all other fields which are not present in the request, same as current for that specific package. Other packages in the set remain as is.

Create Listing Assets API
Creates new Listing Asset Upload under current draft submission.
Update of Listing assets
Microsoft Store Submission API for EXE or MSI app use runtime-generated SAS URLs to Blob Stores for each individual image asset uploads, along with a Commit API call after uploading is successful. To have the ability to update listing assets, and in turn, to be able to add/remove locales in listing module, the following approach can be used:
- Use the Create Listing Asset API to send request regarding asset upload along with language, type and count of assets.
- Based on the number of assets requested, Asset IDs are created on demand and would create a short-term SAS URL and send it back in Response Body under type of assets. You can use this URL to upload Image assets of specific type using HTTP Clients [Put Blob (REST API) - Azure Storage | Microsoft Docs].
- After uploading, you can use the Commit Listing Assets API to also send the new Asset ID information received earlier from previous API call. The single API will internally commit the listing assets data after validation.
- This approach will effectively overwrite the entire set of previous Images of the Asset Type under specific Language which is being sent in Request. Hence, previously uploaded Assets will be removed.

Code examples
The following articles provide detailed code examples that demonstrate how to use the Microsoft Store submission API in different programming languages:
C# sample: Microsoft Store Submission API for MSI or EXE app
This article provides C# code examples that demonstrate how to use the Microsoft Store submission API for MSI or EXE app. You can review each example to learn more about the task it demonstrates, or you can build all the code examples in this article into a console application.
Prerequisites These examples use the following library:
- Newtonsoft.Json NuGet package from Newtonsoft.
Main program The following example implements a command line program that calls the other example methods in this article to demonstrate different ways to use the Microsoft Store submission API. To adapt this program for your own use:
- Assign the SellerId property to the Seller ID of your Partner Center account.
- Assign the ApplicationId property to the ID of the app you want to manage.
- Assign the ClientId and ClientSecret properties to the client ID and key for your app, and replace the tenantid string in the TokenEndpoint URL with the tenant ID for your app. For more information, see How to associate an Azure AD application with your Partner Center account
using System;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
namespace Win32SubmissionApiCSharpSample
{
public class Program
{
static async Task Main(string[] args)
{
var config = new ClientConfiguration()

ServiceUrl = "https://api.store.microsoft.com",
TokenEndpoint = "...",
SellerId = 0
};
await new AppSubmissionUpdateSample(config).RunAppSubmissionUpdateSample();
}
}
}

IngestionClient helper class using C#
The IngestionClient class provides helper methods that are used by other methods in the sample app to perform the following tasks:
- Obtain an Azure AD access token that can be used to call methods in the Microsoft Store submission API. After you obtain a token, you have 60 minutes to use this token in calls to the Microsoft Store submission API before the token expires. After the token expires, you can generate a new token.
- Process the HTTP requests for the Microsoft Store submission API.

Node.js sample: Microsoft Store Submission API for MSI or EXE app
This article provides Node.js code examples that demonstrate how to use the Microsoft Store submission API for MSI or EXE app. You can review each example to learn more about the task it demonstrates, or you can build all the code examples in this article into a console application.
Prerequisites These examples use the following library:
- node-fetch v2 [npm install node-fetch@2]
Create an app submission using node.js
The following example calls the other example methods in this article to demonstrate different ways to use the Microsoft Store submission API. To adapt this program for your own use:
- Assign the SellerId property to the Seller ID of your Partner Center account.
- Assign the ApplicationId property to the ID of the app you want to manage.
- Assign the ClientId and ClientSecret properties to the client ID and key for your app, and replace the tenantid string in the TokenEndpoint URL with the tenant ID for your app. For more information, see How to associate an Azure AD application with your Partner Center account
The following example implements a class that uses several methods in the Microsoft Store submission API to update an app submission.

ClientConfiguration helper
The sample app uses the ClientConfiguration helper class to pass Azure Active Directory data and app data to each of the example methods that use the Microsoft Store submission API.
/** Configuration Object for Store Submission API */
var config = {
version : "1",
applicationId : "...",
clientId : "...",
clientSecret : "...",
serviceEndpoint : "https://api.store.microsoft.com",
tokenEndpoint : "...",
scope : "https://api.store.microsoft.com/.default",
sellerId : "...",
jsonContentType : "application/json",
pngContentType : "image/png",
binaryStreamContentType : "application/octet-stream"
};
module.exports = config;
IngestionClient helper using node.js
The IngestionClient class provides helper methods that are used by other methods in the sample app to perform the following tasks:
- Obtain an Azure AD access token that can be used to call methods in the Microsoft Store submission API. After you obtain a token, you have 60 minutes to use this token in calls to the Microsoft Store submission API before the token expires. After the token expires, you can generate a new token.
- Process the HTTP requests for the Microsoft Store submission API.
