McDonalds API endpoint
Use Crawlora's McDonald's Item List API to extract supported public McDonalds 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.
/mcdonalds/item-listReturns the same published nutrition detail as GET /mcdonalds/item for up to 20 items in one call, plus the per-component ingredient and allergen breakdown that the single-item endpoint does not expose -- a composite item's overall allergen statement is the union of its parts' (a burger's bun, patty, cheese and condiment each carry their own ingredient statement and allergens), so this is the source to use when the full breakdown matters, not just the item-level summary. Item ids come from GET /mcdonalds/menu and are market-specific, so pass the same country back. The response echoes the requested ids so a caller can tell which ones McDonald's returned nothing for. 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| item_ids | string | Yes | Comma-separated McDonald's numeric product ids, up to 20 | ||
| country | string | No | Market (default us). One of us, ca, au, ie, nz, ch, se. Must match the market the item ids came from. Allowed values: us, ca, au, ie, nz, ch, se | ||
| x-api-key (header) | string | Yes | API key required |
curl -X GET "https://api.crawlora.net/api/v1/mcdonalds/item-list?country=us" \ -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.

This endpoint is executed through Crawlora's managed scraping infrastructure.
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.
