Send a POST request to https://api.sandbase.ai/v1/api/channel3/categories-search with your SandBase API key in the Authorization header (Bearer) and the parameters as a JSON body. You can also try it in the Playground on this page without writing code.
How much does the Channel3 Categories Search API cost?
From $0 per call, billed from your SandBase balance. You are only charged for calls you make; there is no subscription.
What parameters does the Channel3 Categories Search API accept?
Required: query (string). Optional: limit (integer). The Parameters table and the Playground on this page list every field.
What does the Channel3 Categories Search API return?
