Managed execution
Every figure below is read from the live ImportYeti endpoint catalog — 2 endpoints, 5 documented request parameters, and 2 published response schemas — the same catalog Docs and Playground run against.
2 documented ImportYeti endpoints, grouped into 2 request families — Company and Search.
5 request parameters are documented across those ImportYeti endpoints, 4 of them required — the full input contract is public before you write any integration code.
2 of the 2 ImportYeti endpoints ship a recorded example response, and 2 carry a documented response schema — you can code against the real JSON before the first request.
ImportYeti endpoints document their error responses (400, 404, 500 and 503) alongside the success schema, so a block, a rate limit, or a missing record comes back as a typed error rather than silently empty data.
2 hosted MCP tools back the ImportYeti endpoints, so an agent can call the same routes with the same parameters and the same JSON contract, with no custom glue.
Coverage map
These cards are generated from the active endpoint catalog, so the landing page reflects the same API surface used by Docs and Playground.
/importyeti/company
/importyeti/search
Endpoint catalog
/importyeti/searchSearches ImportYeti for companies and suppliers matching a name, returning each match's kind (company or supplier), slug, country, address, and headline shipment stats. A "company" result's slug chains into GET /importyeti/company. Credential-free public data, sourced from ImportYeti's own JSON search API (distinct from its human-facing /search results page, which does not render due to a client-side bug in ImportYeti's own app).
Response notes
- `kind` is empty and `slug` holds the raw upstream value if ImportYeti returns a result URL shape this endpoint doesn't recognize (only `company/{slug}` and `supplier/{slug}` are mapped today). - A genuinely empty result set returns `200` with `"results": []`, not an error. Example response: ```json { "code": 200, "msg": "OK", "data": { "query": "nike", "page": 1, "total_pages": 14, "total_hits": 135, "results": [ { "title": "Nike", "kind": "company", "slug": "nike", "country_code": "US", "address": "1 Bowerman Dr, Beaverton, Or 97005, Us", "total_shipments": 560, "most_recent_shipment": "23/11/2024", "other_addresses_count": 27, "other_names_count": 17 }, { "title": "Nike", "kind": "supplier", "slug": "nike", "country_code": "IT", "address": "Via Della Spiga 32 20121 Milano Mi Italy", "total_shipments": 57, "most_recent_shipment": "17/07/2026", "other_addresses_count": 3, "other_names_count": 1 } ], "source_url": "https://www.importyeti.com/api/search?q=nike" } } ```
MCP tool importyeti_search
/importyeti/companyReturns a normalized ImportYeti company report: identity, headline US customs shipment-volume metrics (total shipments, average TEU, last shipment date, estimated shipping spend), its supplier list, and recent bill-of-lading shipment activity. Credential-free public data, rendered from the company report page through proxied browser renderers.
Response notes
- A response missing the company name is treated as an upstream error (parser drift or a blocked/challenge page), never a `200` with empty data. - `suppliers`, `recent_shipments`, `region_breakdown`, and `hs_codes` may come back empty if ImportYeti's template changes the underlying table structure; other fields are unaffected by that. - `hs_codes` is ImportYeti's own "Top 10" list pulled from recent product descriptions, not a full HS-code-chapter breakdown (that's paid-only on ImportYeti's own page). Example response: ```json { "code": 200, "msg": "OK", "data": { "name": "Target 33 South 6Th Street Cc", "slug": "target", "address": "Minneapolis, Mn 55402, Us", "phone": "XXX-XXX-X296", "website": "www.target.com", "also_known_as_names": 229, "also_known_as_addresses": 145, "last_shipment_date": "07/16/2026", "total_shipments": 9123, "avg_teu_per_shipment": 7.19, "avg_teu_per_month": 48.52, "est_shipping_spend": "$27M", "suppliers": [ { "name": "Durus Industries", "slug": "durus-industries", "city": "Maria Fe", "country": "Philippines", "total_shipments": 308, "product_categories": ["Furnitures", "Toys"], "description": "Basketwork Wickerwork Other Article...", "hs_codes": ["4602.19", "8504.40"] } ], "recent_shipments": [ { "date": "07/16/2026", "bill_of_lading": "MOSJMK0H2607003", "supplier_name": "Enuma Chain Mfg Co Ltd", "supplier_slug": "enuma-chain-mfg", "supplier_location": "Kaga Shi, Japan", "weight": "959 kg", "quantity": "2 ctn", "containers": "1", "description": "Kart Chains", "route": "Asia US Pacific", "estimated_freight_cost": "$ 2,563.26" } ], "region_breakdown": [ { "region": "Asia", "percent": 80.3, "countries": [ {"country": "China", "shipments": 4267}, {"country": "Philippines", "shipments": 907} ] } ], "hs_codes": [ { "code": "6404.19.9092", "description": "Valued over $12/pair", "sample_bill_of_lading": "APLU050437011", "product_description": "Footwear Po- 1101064043 Hs Code-6404199092" } ], "url": "https://www.importyeti.com/company/target-33-south-6th-street-cc", "source_url": "https://www.importyeti.com/company/target" } } ```

How to scrape ImportYeti
Crawlora's ImportYeti endpoints return company/supplier search and full company reports as normalized JSON with one API key — no HTML parsing or account required.
Send a company or supplier name to /importyeti/search with an optional page. Each result is tagged with its kind (company or supplier), slug, country and address. The query is required — calling without q returns a 400.
Pass a slug to /importyeti/company. The report is considerably more than identity fields: total_shipments, est_shipping_spend and last_shipment_date, plus a suppliers list, recent_shipments, a region_breakdown of where goods originate, and also_known_as_names and also_known_as_addresses for the aliases a company files under.
The suppliers list and region_breakdown are what make this a supply-chain tool rather than a company directory — you can walk from a brand to the manufacturers shipping to it, then search those suppliers by name to pull their own reports.
Use the report to evaluate a supplier or manufacturer, or re-run on a schedule to track shipment-volume trends over time.
FAQ
Send a company or supplier name to Crawlora's /importyeti/search endpoint and get normalized results — kind, slug, country, and address — as structured JSON.
No ImportYeti account or API key is required from the caller — only your Crawlora API key.
Identity fields (name, address, phone, and the also_known_as_names and also_known_as_addresses a company files under) plus its US customs activity: total_shipments, est_shipping_spend, last_shipment_date, a suppliers list, recent_shipments, and a region_breakdown showing where its goods originate.
Yes, and that is the most useful thing it does. A company report carries a suppliers list alongside a region_breakdown, so you can go from a brand to the manufacturers shipping to it, then feed those supplier names back into /importyeti/search to pull their reports in turn — mapping a supply chain a level at a time rather than looking up one company in isolation.
