# Public API

## Public API

Our store provides a free, read-only JSON API that requires no authentication, no API key, and no signup. It's designed for developers, integrators, and AI agents who want programmatic access to our product catalog.

### Base URL

All API endpoints are available at:

```
/public-api/v1/
```

CORS is enabled, so you can call the API directly from browser-based applications.

### Endpoints

#### List products

```
GET /public-api/v1/products
```

Returns a paginated list of published products. Supports full-text search and filtering.

**Query parameters:**

- `q` — full-text search across product titles and descriptions
- `in_stock=true` — only products currently in stock
- `vendor=Adafruit` — filter by brand/vendor
- `product_type=Sensors` — filter by product type
- `page=1` — page number (default: 1)
- `per_page=25` — results per page (max: 100)

```
# Search for Arduino products
curl /public-api/v1/products?q=arduino&per_page=5

# In-stock items from SparkFun
curl /public-api/v1/products?in_stock=true&vendor=SparkFun
```

#### Get a single product

```
GET /public-api/v1/products/{handle}
```

Returns full product details including all variants, SKUs, stock quantities, images, pricing, and reviews.

```
curl /public-api/v1/products/raspberry-pi-5
```

#### List collections

```
GET /public-api/v1/collections
```

Returns all published collections with product counts.

#### Get a collection with products

```
GET /public-api/v1/collections/{handle}
```

Returns collection details with a paginated list of products in the collection.

```
curl /public-api/v1/collections/sensors?per_page=10
```

### Response format

All responses are JSON. Product listings include pagination metadata:

```
{
  "products": [ ... ],
  "meta": {
    "total": 1420,
    "page": 1,
    "per_page": 25,
    "total_pages": 57
  }
}
```

All prices are in AUD and include GST.

### OpenAPI specification

A machine-readable OpenAPI 3.1 specification is available at [/public-api/v1/openapi.json](/public-api/v1/openapi.json). You can import it into tools like Postman, Insomnia, or use it to auto-generate client libraries.

### Rate limits

The API is rate-limited to 60 requests per minute per IP address. If you exceed this limit, you'll receive a `429 Too Many Requests` response. For bulk data access, consider using the [Atom feeds](/help/atom-feeds) or [Markdown endpoints](/help/markdown-endpoints) instead.
