Overview

What the Google Shopping API does

The Google Shopping API returns the Shopping tab for a product query. Each product has the display price plus a parsed price_value and currency, so you can sort and compare without regex.

Set country and location to see local prices and merchants. Pair with the Google Lens API to go from a photo to shopping results.

What you get

shopping[] array: position, title, source (merchant), link, price, price_value, currency, delivery, image_url, rating, rating_count, offers, product_id.
request object: Echo of the normalized request (endpoint, engine, q, country, language, page…), handy for logging.
meta object: request_id, credits_used, cached, engine, latency_ms, resolved_urls and parse_quality. parse_quality=empty means the call was not billed.
