Kroger API endpoint
Use Crawlora's Kroger store API to extract supported public Kroger 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.
/kroger/storeReturns one Kroger store's public detail: postal address, geographic coordinates, phone number, displayed opening hours (including any daily break hours), and whether it has a drive-thru. store_id is the same store/location id kroger-products and kroger-suggest accept. 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.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Default | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| store_id | string | Yes | Kroger store/location id | ||
| x-api-key (header) | string | Yes | API key required |
curl -X GET "https://api.crawlora.net/api/v1/kroger/store" \ -H "x-api-key: $CRAWLORA_API_KEY"
Send your scraping API key in the x-api-key header. Use the console API Keys page to rotate or select the active key.
Endpoint usage is metered in credits. The plan prices, included credits, limits, and overage rates below match the active backend billing configuration.
| Plan | Price | Included credits | Daily cap | Rate limit | Overage |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Free | $0/mo | 2,000 | 500 daily credits | 5/min | No overage |
| Starter | $9/mo | 20,000 | 5,000 daily credits | 15/min | $0.75/1,000 overage credits when enabled |
| Growth | $29/mo | 100,000 | 25,000 daily credits | 45/min | $0.45/1,000 overage credits when enabled |
| Pro | $79/mo | 400,000 | No daily cap | 120/min | $0.30/1,000 overage credits |
| Business | $199/mo | 1,200,000 | No daily cap | 300/min | $0.20/1,000 overage credits |
| Enterprise | $499/mo | 5,000,000 | No daily cap | 1,000/min | $0.12/1,000 overage credits |
This endpoint is executed through Crawlora's managed scraping infrastructure.
- `hours` rows use Kroger's own day groupings (e.g. `Mon - Fri`), not one row per weekday. `break_hours` carries any daily closure window (Kroger publishes these for pharmacy counters). - `is_today` marks the row covering the current day in the store's own timezone, as Kroger computes it. - Only shopper-facing fields are returned. Kroger's upstream payload also carries an internal operational block (EDI flags, processing times, internal facility codes); that is deliberately not surfaced. - An unknown `store_id` returns `404`. Example response: ```json { "code": 200, "msg": "OK", "data": { "store_id": "01600531", "name": "Waterville", "brand": "KROGER", "phone": "(419) 878-1040", "open_text": "Open Until 8 PM", "address": { "address_lines": ["8730 Waterville Swanton Rd"], "city": "Waterville", "state": "OH", "postal_code": "43566", "country": "US" }, "location": {"latitude": 41.509023, "longitude": -83.75036}, "hours": [ {"days": "Sun", "hours": "10:00 AM - 5:00 PM", "is_today": false}, {"days": "Mon - Fri", "hours": "8:00 AM - 8:00 PM", "is_today": true} ], "break_hours": [{"days": "Sun - Sat", "hours": "1:00 PM - 1:30 PM", "is_today": true}], "has_drive_thru": true } } ```
Crawlora does not silently return bad data when the upstream page cannot be used.
| Status | Common failure case |
|---|---|
| 400 | Invalid input or missing required parameter |
| 429 | Plan or endpoint rate limit exceeded |
| 500 | Internal execution error |
| 502 | Upstream platform failed, returned unusable HTML, or served a challenge page that could not be resolved |
When possible, Crawlora returns structured error context so your integration can retry, back off, or inspect the request.
