Airbnb Listing API
Returns one Airbnb listing: title, property type, description, area, coordinates, rating and review count, photos, amenities, and check-in and check-out times.

When to use the Airbnb Listing API
Use it to inspect one property, and add check_in and check_out to price that stay. A listing id that does not exist is never charged.
From the API reference
Returns one Airbnb listing in full: title, property type (place.category), description, area, coordinates, rating out of 5 and review count, photos, amenities, and the check-in and check-out times. With check_in and check_out it also prices that stay in place.hotel.prices. A listing id that does not exist answers 503 with a note to check the id, not 404, because Airbnb answers the same way for both; it is never charged.

What can you do with the Listing API?
The Listing endpoint gives you structured Airbnb data with computed fields in a single request. No scraping infrastructure to build or maintain.
Example Request
# GET /v1/airbnb/listing: 1 credit per call. Cache hits are free and failed calls are refunded.
# Check the price first for 0 credits: add dry_run=1 to the query. Nothing is fetched or charged.
# --max-time 60: the API's own time limit for this endpoint.
# --retry 3: retries timeouts, 429 and 5xx, honoring Retry-After.
# -o response.json keeps only the final attempt's body.
# One Idempotency-Key per request, reused on every retry, so a retried call is never charged twice.
