# Home Depot Data API (https://www.socialcrawl.dev/platforms/home_depot)

> Home Depot publishes no public product API. SocialCrawl covers it with 2 endpoints: full product detail by item id or URL, and paginated customer reviews. The product response carries something nothing else in this API sells, a real unit count on the shelf at each nearby store, so you can answer "is it actually in stock near me" rather than just "is it in stock".

TL;DR: SocialCrawl's Home Depot API exposes 2 endpoints, 5 credits per call, all returning one unified JSON schema with AI-enriched fields. Single x-api-key auth, 100 free credits on signup.

## Endpoints

| Endpoint | Method | Path | Credits | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Product | GET | `/v1/home_depot/product` | 5 | Get a Home Depot product by item id or URL |
| Reviews | GET | `/v1/home_depot/reviews` | 5 | Get Home Depot product reviews |

## Code example

```bash
curl "https://www.socialcrawl.dev/v1/home_depot/product" \
  -H "x-api-key: sc_YOUR_API_KEY"
```

Every response shares one JSON envelope: `{ success, platform, endpoint, data, credits_used, credits_remaining }`.

## FAQ

### What is a Home Depot item id?

Home Depot calls it the internet number. It is the numeric id at the end of a product URL: homedepot.com/p/<name>/326680222 is item id 326680222. You can also pass the whole URL instead.

### Can I check stock at a specific store?

Yes. Pass a store id or a ZIP code and the response localises pricing and inventory, returning the actual unit count held at each nearby store rather than a simple in-stock flag.

### Is there a Home Depot keyword search endpoint?

Not currently. The upstream's Home Depot search and category browse both return a service-unavailable error on every call, so we did not ship endpoints that would fail. Start from a product URL or item id instead.

### How complete are Home Depot reviews?

The most complete review data in this API. Every field is populated: text, rating, reviewer, date, verified-purchaser flag, helpful votes, photos and any manufacturer reply.

### Do review pages overlap when crawling?

No. Page one and page two share no review ids and the review total holds steady across pages, so a full crawl collects each review exactly once.

### What is in the specification table?

Home Depot's own grouped specs, so a chuck size or battery voltage arrives with the group it belongs to rather than as a flat list of unlabelled pairs.
