Overview

Returns Papa John's **India** menu with live prices in Indian Rupees, from papajohns.in's own ordering backend. This is the India market only -- prices, items, and availability are India-specific and are not comparable to Papa John's US/Canada data (see GET /papajohns/nutrition for US national reference data). Returns every category with its items and deals: list price, strike-through price where a discount is active, dietary tags (Veg, Non Veg, Spicy), images, and the store/channel/day combinations where an item is blacked out. Set include_options=true to also get each item's full size, crust, topping, sauce, and drizzle tree with per-option prices -- this makes the response very large, so prefer GET /papajohns/india/menu/item for one item's options. Pricing is franchise-wide rather than per-store; store_id, channel_id, and day filter item availability, not price, and only take effect when all three are supplied. 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.

Infrastructure behavior

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

• Proxy strategy: managed automatically where needed
• Browser rendering: enabled for supported targets that require rendered HTML or JavaScript execution
• Browser cluster: supported dynamic workloads can be routed through distributed browser instances
• Retry behavior: automatic retry/fallback may be used depending on endpoint type
• Challenge handling: challenged pages or unusable upstream HTML are detected and surfaced clearly when they cannot be used
• Billing: credits are charged only for successful 2xx responses
• Observability: responses include request context where available

Response behavior

- **Pricing is franchise-wide, not per-store.** `store_id`, `channel_id`, and `day` filter item *availability*, never price. - **The availability filter needs all three of `store_id`, `channel_id`, and `day`.** Upstream blacks an item out only at a specific store × channel × day combination, so a partial selection cannot hide anything. `filters.availability_filter_applied` reports whether the filter actually ran. - Each item's `availability` lists the blackout combinations (`blacked_out_store_ids`, `blacked_out_channel_ids`, `blacked_out_days`). Empty lists mean the item is available everywhere. - Items and deals share one upstream rank space and are returned merged in that order, so a deal can appear between two a la carte items. Filter on `kind` (`item` or `deal`) to separate them. - `include_options=true` makes the response substantially larger (roughly 1MB for the whole catalog versus ~58KB without). Prefer [`/papajohns/india/menu/item`](papajohns-india-menu-item.md) for one item. - A deal (`kind` is `deal`) whose price is computed rather than fixed reports `price` `0` — read `price_type` instead. See [`/papajohns/india/deal`](papajohns-india-deal.md) for a deal's full composition. - `taxes` carries the franchise tax applied on top of menu prices; menu prices are pre-tax unless a tax is marked `inclusive`. - An unknown `channel_id` or `day` returns a `400`. Example response: ```json {"code":200,"msg":"OK","data":{"market":"india","currency":{"code":"₹","name":"Indian Rupee","locale":"en-IN","country_code":"91"},"taxes":[{"name":"GST","type":"percentage","value":5,"inclusive":false}],"tags":["Veg","Non Veg","Spicy"],"categories":[{"id":"6","name":"Pizzas","rank":7,"items":[{"id":"60","name":"CHICKEN PEPPERONI","kind":"item","description":"Smoky chicken pepperoni, melty real mozzarella, and pizza sauce.","price":679,"discounted":false,"category_id":"6","rank":58,"tags":["Spicy","Non Veg"],"image_url":"https://d1t8cetepnp3l.cloudfront.net/pj_webapp/images/Website/chicken-pepperoni4180.png","customizable":true,"upsell":false,"availability":{}}],"subcategories":[{"id":"8","name":"India Special","items":[]}],"item_count":38}],"item_count":114,"filters":{"availability_filter_applied":false},"source_url":"https://papajohns.suntechsolutions.us/api/newmenu?store_id=0&day=6&channel_id=0","fetched_at":"2026-09-05T09:00:00Z"}} ```

Error behavior

Crawlora does not silently return bad data when the upstream page cannot be used.

When possible, Crawlora returns structured error context so your integration can retry, back off, or inspect the request.
