How to open the Windows Store page for a specific WP app from a WP8 app (MarketplaceDetailTask?)

Question

To open the Windows Store page for the current app, we generally use code like this:

MarketplaceDetailTask marketPlaceDetailTask = new MarketplaceDetailTask();
marketPlaceDetailTask.Show();

But how to open the Windows Store page for another published product? Am I right if I call something like that:

var success = Windows.System.Launcher.LaunchUriAsync(new Uri("http://www.windowsphone.com/s?appid=d1a235ce-...-040e"));

or that:

WebBrowserTask task = new WebBrowserTask();
task.URL = "http://www.windowsphone.com/s?appid=d1a235ce-...-040e";
task.Show();

Is there a dedicated task like MarketplaceDetailTask to open the specific product page?

Answer 1

Just use the MarketplaceDetailTask with the guid of the app you want to show

var marketplaceDetailTask = new MarketplaceDetailTask();
marketplaceDetailTask.ContentIdentifier = "d1a235ce-...-040e";
marketplaceDetailTask.ContentType = MarketplaceContentType.Applications;
marketplaceDetailTask.Show();
