GET /slickdeals/primary-categories

List Slickdeals' featured primary-category landing pages

Returns Slickdeals' small, curated set of "featured" primary-category landing pages (e.g. laptop-deals, tv-deals) -- the discovery endpoint for GET /slickdeals/primary-category's slug parameter. This is a separate taxonomy from GET /slickdeals/categories' 421-entry tag list and from GET /slickdeals/deal's own category/sub_category fields -- Slickdeals maintains multiple parallel category/tag id spaces, not one. Unlike /slickdeals/categories, no single live page enumerates this set; it is maintained as periodically-refreshed reference data.

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