Raising Cane's API endpoint
Returns one level of Raising Cane's store directory tree. Omit path for the root, which lists the US states Raising Cane's operates in; pass a child's path to descend (state to cities, city to stores). Each child carries its name, path, URL and how many stores sit under that branch. A child with is_store true is a store record rather than another directory level -- pass its path to GET /raisingcanes/store. This is a directory browse, not a proximity search: use GET /raisingcanes/nearby for a radius lookup.
/raisingcanes/directoryThis is a directory browse, not a proximity search — use /api/v1/raisingcanes/nearby for a radius lookup.
