FAQ
How do I use the Customs Trade Importers API?
Send a POST request to https://api.sandbase.ai/v1/api/tendata/trade/importers 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 Customs Trade Importers API cost?
From $0.019 per call, billed from your SandBase balance. You are only charged for calls you make; there is no subscription.
What parameters does the Customs Trade Importers API accept?
Required: pageNo (integer), catalog (one of imports, exports), endDate (string), pageSize (integer) and startDate (string). Optional: hsCode (string), weight (array), exporter (string), importer (string), quantity (array) and sumOfUSD (array) and 16 more. The Parameters table and the Playground on this page list every field.
What does the Customs Trade Importers API return?
