HOW IT WORKS

From API key to Whatnot data in four steps.

Run a sample below without a key.

  1. 01

    Get your API key

    Create a free account and copy your key. You start with 100 free credits; no card needed.

  2. 02

    Choose an endpoint

    Pick one of the 12 Whatnot endpoints and add its input, such as a public handle.

  3. 03

Whatnot API and scraping

What marketplace data does the Whatnot API return?

Retrieve seller profiles, shows, reviews, shop listings, clips, product records and category feeds. Search spans listings, livestreams, products, users and categories for shopping and seller research.

Use Seller Listings for a shop’s buy-it-now and auction inventory. Listing Details returns price, quantity, auction state and seller information, while Product provides catalog context such as lowest listing and last sale prices.

Whatnot: category discovery and live shows

Can I retrieve Whatnot categories and trending browse tags?

Yes. Categories returns the category tree, subcategories and browse tags with live viewer counts. Sort tags by viewers to explore active interests, then use Category Feed for matching shows, listings and refinement tags.

Can the Whatnot API retrieve live shows and their products?

Yes. Seller Shows lists scheduled, live and past shows. Livestream returns status, viewers, times and seller details, while Livestream Listings retrieves the products in a selected show’s shop.

Can I retrieve Whatnot seller reviews and shipping ratings?

Yes. User Reviews returns buyer feedback with overall, shipping, packaging and accuracy ratings. Pair the reviews with Profile’s rating, review count and average shipping days to build a seller research summary.

API access and integration

How do I get a ScrapeAtlas API key and authenticate requests?

Create a ScrapeAtlas account and generate an API key in the dashboard. Send the key in the x-api-key request header when calling https://api.scrapeatlas.com. The API playground lets you enter an endpoint’s parameters and inspect its JSON response.

Can I call the scraping API from Python, JavaScript or the CLI?

Yes. Send authenticated HTTP requests from Python, JavaScript or another language that supports HTTP. The endpoint reference includes request examples and response fields. Use the ScrapeAtlas CLI for terminal workflows and pass the returned pagination values when requesting additional result pages.

Can I connect an AI assistant to the ScrapeAtlas MCP server?

Yes. Connect an MCP-compatible assistant to the ScrapeAtlas MCP server to discover and call the public platform tools with your ScrapeAtlas account. The agent reference also gives coding assistants a readable guide to the endpoints and their request schemas.
