Chewy API endpoint
Returns one page of Chewy's full brand directory -- roughly 7,600 brands -- with each brand's id, name, Chewy's own written description, image, parent-catalog group, and its child brands where a brand umbrellas others (Purina lists 27). This is the whole catalog of brands, unlike chewy_facets, which only reports the brands present in one category's listing. Pass name to look up a single brand by exact name, case-insensitive; it is an exact match upstream, not a search, so "Purina" matches while "purina pro" does not. To filter products by a brand, pass the brand's NAME to chewy_category or chewy_search as filter=brand_facet:<name> -- facet_id is the join key onto chewy_facets' own option ids and is not accepted by the filter parameter.
/chewy/brandsThis is the whole catalog of brands. /chewy/facets reports only the brands
present in one category's listing, which is a much smaller set.
Query parameters:
page -- optional, 1-based, defaults to 1.limit -- optional, 1 to 500, defaults to 100.name -- optional. Return only the brand with this exact name,
case-insensitive. This is an exact match upstream, not a search: ACANA and
acana match, purina pro and uri return nothing. For substring
discovery, use /chewy/facets on a category.Notable response behavior:
name to
/chewy/category or /chewy/search as filter=brand_facet:<name> --
e.g. filter=brand_facet:ACANA returns 33 products on group_id=294.facet_id is not accepted by that filter. It is the join key onto
/chewy/facets' own options[].id for the same brand (ACANA is id 74
here and facet_id 507405, which is exactly the option id /chewy/facets
reports). Passing filter=brand_facet:507405 returns nothing.child_brand_ids lists the ids of sub-brands under an umbrella brand.short_description is omitted when it merely repeats the brand name, which
upstream does for most entries.long_description; the rest are
name-only catalog entries.name that matches nothing, or a page past the end, returns an empty
brands array rather than an error.limit or page returns a 400.| Field | Filled in, of 40 checked | Values in the sample |

It is NOT the value the filter param takes. chewy_category/chewy_search consume the brand NAME -- filter=brand_facet:ACANA returns 33 products on group 294, while filter=brand_facet:507405 returns none.
