eBay Search API

The eBay Search API is a REST API that allows you to access data from eBay search results using the ebay/search endpoint.

You can query the API by passing in the query you want to search for with the eBay search engine.

curl -GET "https://proxy.scrapeops.io/v1/structured-data/ebay/search?api_key=YOUR_API_KEY&query=laptop"

Or you can pass in the url of the search page you want to scrape (make sure to encode the URL).

curl -GET "https://proxy.scrapeops.io/v1/structured-data/ebay/search?api_key=YOUR_API_KEY&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fsch%2Fi.html%3F_nkw%3Dlaptop"

Authorisation - API Key

To use the ScrapeOps proxy, you first need an API key which you can get by signing up for a free account here.

Your API key must be included with every request using the api_key query parameter otherwise the API will return a 403 Forbidden Access status code.
