Sephora API endpoint
Use Crawlora's Sephora category browse API to extract supported public Sephora 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.
/sephora/categoryReturns one page of a Sephora category/browse listing (e.g. Makeup, Skincare), with the same sort and facet filters as /sephora/search. slug is the path segment after sephora.com/shop/, e.g. makeup-cosmetics. The response uses Sephora's public catalog search to keep browse listings available when the category page's legacy embedded data is absent. 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.

This endpoint is executed through Crawlora's managed scraping infrastructure.
- `display_name` is derived from the supplied category slug. - `related_categories` lists related catalog searches when present. - `category_id` is omitted when Sephora's catalog search does not supply a stable category identifier.
