Raising Cane's API endpoint
Use Crawlora's Raising Cane's Directory API to extract supported public Raising Cane's 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.
/raisingcanes/directoryReturns 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. 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| path | string | No | Directory path from a previous response's children[].path, e.g. la. Omit for the root state index. | ||
| x-api-key (header) | string | Yes | API key required |
curl -X GET "https://api.crawlora.net/api/v1/raisingcanes/directory" \ -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 |
|---|---|

| 429 | Plan or endpoint rate limit exceeded |
| 500 | Internal execution error |

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