Chewy API endpoint
Use Crawlora's Search Chewy by keyword API to extract supported public Chewy data as structured JSON. This page includes request parameters, cURL examples, response schema, error behavior, credit cost, and a Playground link for testing before integration.
/chewy/searchReturns one page of a Chewy keyword search's normalized product listing (price, autoship price/discount, stock, rating, images), plus embedded facets. q is free-text search keywords, e.g. "salmon dog food". A generic query that strongly matches one of Chewy's own categories (e.g. "dog food", "cat litter", "leash") is transparently redirected to that category's listing, the same real results a chewy.com visitor would see -- source_url reflects the actual listing fetched. sort and filter narrow/reorder the listing; every facets[].value paired with one of that facet's options[].value from any prior response is a valid filter key:value pair. Developers commonly use this endpoint for data enrichment, monitoring, research dashboards, internal automation, and agent-native workflows that need repeatable structured public web data. Authentication uses the documented Crawlora headers, and usage is metered with the credit cost shown on this page.
Request parameters are generated from the active endpoint catalog. Required values must be sent before Crawlora can call the upstream public web data source.

This endpoint is executed through Crawlora's managed scraping infrastructure.
- Pagination is 36 products per page via `page` (1-based, defaults to 1). - `autoship_price`/`autoship_discount_pct` reflect Chewy's Autoship subscribe-and-save program; both are omitted when a product isn't Autoship-eligible. - A query that matches nothing returns a genuine zero-result response (`count: 0`, empty `products`), not an error. - A generic query that strongly matches one of Chewy's own categories (e.g. `dog food`, `cat litter`, `leash`, `harness`) is transparently redirected to that category's own listing -- the same real results a chewy.com visitor typing that query would see, rather than an empty response. `source_url` reflects the actual listing that was fetched (the category's `plp/api/search?groupId=...` URL in this case, not the `term=...` one). Example response: ```json {"code":200,"msg":"OK","data":{"query":"salmon dog food","total":1451,"count":1,"products":[{"part_number":"3969182","parent_part_number":"114152","name":"Pedigree Complete Nutrition Grilled Steak & Vegetable Flavor Dog Kibble Adult Dry Dog Food","manufacturer":"Pedigree","url":"https://www.chewy.com/pedigree-complete-nutrition-grilled/dp/3969182","image_url":"https://image.chewy.com/catalog/general/images/pedigree.jpg","currency_code":"USD","price":24.98,"is_autoship_allowed":true,"in_stock":true,"rating":4.5,"rating_count":900}],"facets":[{"name":"Brand","value":"brand_facet","options":[{"name":"Blue Buffalo","display_label":"Blue Buffalo","value":"Blue Buffalo","product_count":40}]}],"source_url":"https://www.chewy.com/plp/api/search?catalogId=1004&count=36&from=0&term=salmon+dog+food","fetched_at":"2026-08-21T10:00:00Z"}} ```
