Questions

FAQ

How do I use the 1688 Category Products API?

Send a POST request to https://api.sandbase.ai/v1/api/1688/category/items 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 1688 Category Products API cost?

$0.02 per call, billed from your SandBase balance. You are only charged for calls you make; there is no subscription.

What parameters does the 1688 Category Products API accept?

Required: catId (string). Optional: language (one of en, zh, ru, vi, ja, ko), page (integer), pageSize (integer), sort (one of default, sales, price_up, price_down), priceStart (string) and priceEnd (string) and 4 more. The Parameters table and the Playground on this page list every field.

What does the 1688 Category Products API return?

A JSON response returned in the same HTTP request (synchronous).

Do I need a 1688 developer account or API key?

No. 1688 Category Products runs through SandBase, so one SandBase API key covers this endpoint and every other API and model in the catalog. You do not need to apply for 1688 API access separately.
