Query parameters
| Name | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
|
category_id
required |
string | — | Browse node id or slug. |
| page | integer | 1 | 1-based page number. |
| sort | string | — |
Upstream sort key, e.g. price_asc.
|
| marketplace | string | US | Two-letter marketplace code (US, UK, DE, FR, IT, ES, CA, JP, IN, AU, …). |
| zip | string | — | Delivery postcode. Without one, many listings report “cannot be shipped to your location” and come back with no price or images. Always send it for price-accurate data. |
