OverviewLink to Overview

Search Idealo price-comparison listings on Spain (idealo.es), France (idealo.fr), and Germany (idealo.de). Pass a keyword plus country, or a full search URL in query. WebUnlocker. 3 credits per call.

Each result is a product card: id, title, product URL, lowest price (EUR), shipping fee, offer count, image, rating (0-5), review count, lead shop, and short characteristics. Pagination is { page, per_page, total_results, total_pages, next } where next is the next search URL (or null).

Only es, fr, and de are supported. Other Idealo TLDs return 400.

NotesLink to Notes

  • WebUnlocker. 3 credits per call.
  • Keyword + empty country targets Spain (idealo.es).
  • A full search URL in query wins. Paginate with page or ?page= on that URL. Use pagination.next.
  • France uses /prechcat.html, not /resultats.html.
  • shipping is the delivery fee, not price + shipping.
  • Idealo stores ratings on a 0-100 scale internally. The API returns 0-5 (90 becomes 4.5).
  • offer_count is the marketplace total. Use Idealo Product for the visible offer list.
  • Pass results[].url or results[].id to Idealo Product.
