- Price: $0.0027 / offer
- Billed: Per record
- Free to start: $0.10
- Endpoint: POST /v1/google

## What people build with the Google Shopping API

- **Price comparison.** See what each merchant charges for the same product and who sits at the top of the list.
- **Reseller monitoring.** Find which shops list your products and at what price, country by country.
- **Market checks.** Search a category and read prices and ratings across merchants before you set your own.

## Quote it, then run it

1. free quote: the exact price, nothing charged:

```bash
curl -X POST https://apiforagents.dev/v1/google \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $AFA_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"op":"shopping","query":"Sony WH-1000XM5","country":"US","language":"en","limit":20,"estimateOnly":true}'
```

2. the same call, run:

```bash
curl -X POST https://apiforagents.dev/v1/google \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $AFA_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"op":"shopping","query":"Sony WH-1000XM5","country":"US","language":"en","limit":20}'
```

## Inputs

Everything you can send in one shopping call. Required inputs first.

| Input | Type | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| query * | string | ≤300 chars |
| country | string | ISO alpha-2 |
| language | string | BCP-47 |
| postedWithin | enum |  |
| limit | integer | 1-100 |

## What comes back

The fields of every row, always present. Nothing is guessed: a value that could not be measured is null, and the answer's coverage says why.

| Field | Type |
|---|---|
| productId | string |
| productUrl | string |
| title | string |
| merchant | string |
| price | string |
| priceValue | number |
| rating | number |
| reviewCount | integer |
| position | integer |
| image | string |
| details | object |

details is always the last field: everything else the source sent for that row, under our own field names. Its keys depend on the source that answered, so read them defensively; it is {} when there is nothing more.

## A sample answer

Made-up names and values in the real field names, so you can see the shape before you spend anything.

| title | merchant | price | priceValue | rating | reviewCount |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sonora Buds Pro, Noise Cancelling | Sonora Store | $79.00 | 79 | 4.4 | 2310 |
| Sonora Buds Pro, Noise Cancelling | GadgetHub | $84.99 | 84.99 | 4.4 | 2310 |
| Sonora Buds Lite | Sonora Store | $49.00 | 49 | 4.1 | 860 |

## Pricing

Pay as you go, in US dollars, per record. No subscription, nothing expires, $5 first top-up, and every new agent starts with $0.10 free.

| Request | Records | At the list price |
|---|---|---|
| One offer | 1 | $0.0027 |
| 10 offers | 10 | $0.027 |
| A full page | 100 | $0.27 |

These are per-record list prices. Some calls also carry a minimum, such as a page of search results, so a small request can cost more than the table shows. The quote ("estimateOnly": true) is free, gives the most your exact request can cost, and the charge then settles to what came back. Records that do not come back are refunded.

## Try it without writing code

- [Open the Google Shopping API in the playground](https://apiforagents.dev/dashboard/run?platform=google&op=shopping): The playground runs any endpoint by hand: pick a platform and what you want from it, fill a short form named in plain words (or press Use sample input), see the free quote on the Run button, run it, then read the answer as a table or JSON and download it as CSV or JSON. The same call is written out as cURL, Python and Node while you type.

## Why this one, and not a scraper you run yourself

- No login, no Google account, no cookies, no proxies, no browser to babysit.
- When the site changes its pages, your request stays the same: keeping the reads working is our job, not yours.
- A fetch that fails costs nothing: it is named in the answer with a reason, and the quote says the most a call can cost before it runs.

## Questions

### What does the Google Shopping API return?

One row per offer: title, merchant, price as shown and as a number, rating, review count, position, product id and product URL.

### What do I pass in?

A query of up to 300 characters, and optionally a country, a language, postedWithin (1h, 1d, 7d, 30d or any) and a limit of up to a hundred offers.

### How much does it cost?

$0.0027 per offer at the list price. A small call can carry a minimum, so quote first with "estimateOnly": true: the quote is free and is the most the call can cost. You pay for what comes back.

## Why API for Agents

- One key for 26 platforms: social, commerce, jobs, places, search and contacts, with one request shape and one response shape.
- A free quote before any spend: add "estimateOnly": true to any call and see the most it can cost.
- Pay per record in US dollars. No subscription, nothing expires, top-ups from $5.
- $0.10 free to try, no card. An AI agent can sign itself up in one request; a person claims it later.
- Measured, not estimated: every answer says when each row was measured, whether it was fresh or a recent capture, and how sure to be of each field.
- Partial success is success: anything that could not be fetched is named with a reason, and the charge settles to what came back, never above the quote.
- Typed fields that keep their names whichever source answered, and a details object last with everything else the source sent, under our own field names.
- Try any endpoint in the playground and download the answer as CSV or JSON.
