You can also get the different product-categories:

from supermarktconnector.ah import AHConnector
connector = AHConnector()
connector.get_categories()

[
  {
    "id": 6401,
    "name": "Aardappel, groente, fruit",
    "images": [
      {
        "height": 400,
        "width": 600,
        "url": "https://static.ahold.com//cmgtcontent/media//002304400/000/002304468_001_groenten-fruit.png"
      }
    ],
    "nix18": false
  }
]

Deprecated

X-Digest (Albert Heijn)

The Albert Heijn used a special X-Digest for verifying that the app data traffic was coming from the backend, in the new versions this has been removed.

This X-Digest is an hashed value that uses SHA1 to check if the request is valid and made by the original android app. The logic behind this hash is:

X_DIGEST = URL + PARAMETERS + USERNAME + POST_BODY (Max 1000 bytes) + SECRET_PASSWORD

Price differences (Jumbo)

In the past all the the jumbo stores where divided over 5 different categories, with each category a different price for some of the products. The token used for store identification is no longer working in the new versions, It might be handled on the backend.

I created an interactive map which sorts all the stores by category.
