OverviewLink to Overview

The Grainger Search endpoint searches Grainger US (grainger.com) or Canada (grainger.ca) by keyword, category URL or path.

It returns product listings when available, plus category branches and suggested products. Browser rendering is used because Grainger pages need JavaScript and scroll to load listings.

Costs 2 credits per call.
