GET /chewy/category

Browse a Chewy category listing

Returns one page (36 products) of a Chewy category/browse listing's product grid (price, autoship price/discount, stock, rating, images), plus embedded facets and breadcrumbs. group_id is Chewy's own numeric category id -- the trailing id segment of a chewy.com/b/<slug>-<id> browse URL, e.g. 294 for /b/dry-food-294. Every breadcrumbs[].group_id and facets[].options[].value in a response is a ready-to-use group_id for a follow-up call, so a caller can discover the full category taxonomy starting from a known category. A group_id Chewy does not recognize returns a 404 rather than an unfiltered listing. sort and filter narrow/reorder the listing; every facets[].value paired with one of that facet's options[].value from any prior response is a valid filter key:value pair (e.g. brand, breed size, flavor, price range, customer rating -- whichever facets that category exposes).

API key required. Paste a full key or rotate one from the API Keys page.
