eBay Search API
Scrape eBay Search data with one API call. Returns eBay listings matching a keyword, 60 per page on an active search, each with its item id, title, price, original price where the listing is discounted, currency, condition, image, seller handle, seller feedback percentage and count, units sold, buying format, and the listing URL. completed_items returns ended listings, and free_shipping restricts results to listings with free delivery. sold_items is temporarily rejected before billing because the upstream now requires a private eBay session cookie, which SocialCrawl does not accept or forward. Feed a returned item id into GET /v1/ebay/product for the full listing including seller reputation depth. When crawling, note that the result total eBay reports is an estimate that changes between pages, so it is not returned here: paginate until a page comes back empty.
Last updated September 2026Maintained by the SocialCrawl team
Returns eBay listings with item ID, price, seller rating, and units sold. completed_items finds ended listings. sold_items returns 400 before billing; it requires a private upstream session cookie.
Use it to scan active or ended marketplace listings, then pull full detail by item id. Sold-comps search is temporarily unavailable.

The Search endpoint gives you structured eBay data with computed fields in a single request. No scraping infrastructure to build or maintain.
Example Request
curl -H "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY" \
"https://www.socialcrawl.dev/v1/ebay/search?query=airpods+pro"import requests
response = requests.get(
"https://www.socialcrawl.dev/v1/ebay/search",
params={
'query': 'airpods pro',
},
headers={"x-api-key": "YOUR_API_KEY"},
)
data = response.json()const response = await fetch(
"https://www.socialcrawl.dev/v1/ebay/search?query=airpods+pro",
{
headers: { "x-api-key": "YOUR_API_KEY" },
},
);
const data = await response.json();Parameters
| Parameter | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
| query | Yes | Free-text listing search, for example airpods pro or vintage seiko. |
| country | No | eBay marketplace as a two-letter country code: US (ebay.com, default), GB, AU, CA, DE, FR, IT, ES, IE, AT, CH, NL, BE, PL, SG, MY, PH, HK, or MX. The marketplace sets the listing pool, language, and currency. (US | GB | AU | CA | DE | FR | IT | ES | IE | AT | CH | NL | BE | PL | SG | MY | PH | HK | MX) |
| page | No | Page number, starting at 1. Prefer the universal cursor parameter. |
| sort_by | No | Result ordering: best_match (default), price_low, price_high, newly_listed, or ending_soonest. (best_match | price_low | price_high | newly_listed | ending_soonest) |
| condition | No | Restrict to one item condition: new, refurbished, or used. (new | refurbished | used) |
| buying_format | No | Restrict to one sale type: auction, buy_it_now, or accepts_offers. (auction | buy_it_now | accepts_offers) |
| show_only | No | Restrict results with completed_items or free_shipping; combine supported values with a comma. sold_items is temporarily unavailable and is rejected before billing because the upstream requires a private eBay session cookie. SocialCrawl does not accept or forward session cookies. |
| min_price | No | Lowest price to include. Applied by eBay and approximate, so filter on product.price.current if you need a hard bound. |
| max_price | No | Highest price to include. Applied by eBay and approximate, so filter on product.price.current if you need a hard bound. |
| aspects | No | Category-specific item aspect filter taken from a previous response, for example Brand:Apple. |
