After signing up, every developer is assigned a personal API access key, a unique combination of letters and digits provided to access to our API endpoint. To authenticate with the Craigslist Marketplace Classifieds and Search API simply include your bearer token in the Authorization header.

Should be Bearer access_key. See "Your API Access Key" above when you are subscribed.

No long-term commitment. Upgrade, downgrade, or cancel anytime. Free Trial includes up to 50 requests.
Search Craigslist eCommerce and local classifieds in real time across 707 official US, Canadian, and international metros for electronics, furniture, general merchandise, private-party vehicles, and rentals with deduplicated cursor pagination, full listing descriptions, 1200x900 photo galleries, and GPS coordinates.
All 707 official Craigslist subdomains across the United States, Canada, Europe, Asia, and Latin America are supported natively, along with city aliases such as sf, la, nyc, miami, chicago, dallas, seattle, toronto, and london.
Call /v1/craigslist/vehicles with seller_type=owner to query private-party cars-by-owner (cto), seller_type=dealer for dealerships (ctd), or seller_type=all for combined inventory (cta).
Every search response returns total_count, has_more, and a next_cursor token prefixed with cl1_. Pass cursor=next_cursor alongside the same location and filter parameters to retrieve the next deduplicated page with zero duplicate post_id overlap.
Calling /v1/craigslist/item returns the public post title, clean listing description, asking price and local currency, high-resolution 1200x900 gallery images, map latitude and longitude coordinates, posted and updated timestamps, and structured vehicle or housing attributes.
Live uncached requests typically complete in 1.0 to 2.8 seconds on search, vehicles, and housing, and 1.5 to 3.2 seconds on item detail. Identical requests within 60 seconds resolve in under 10 milliseconds from cache unless no_cache=true is set.
No. All endpoints accept standard REST query parameters with your marketplace API key header and return structured JSON directly.
Calling /v1/craigslist/item on an expired, deleted, or removed posting returns HTTP 404 (TARGET_NOT_FOUND) with a structured error message.
Each endpoint returns structured JSON data relevant to Craigslist listings. For example, the search endpoints provide listing titles, prices, URLs, and metadata like total counts and pagination tokens, while the item detail endpoint includes full descriptions, image URLs, and specific attributes for vehicles or housing.
Key fields include `post_id`, `url`, `title`, `price`, `description`, `location`, `posted_at`, and `updated_at`. For vehicles, additional fields like `VIN` and `odometer` are included, while housing data may feature `bedrooms`, `bathrooms`, and `square footage`.
The search endpoints provide listings for electronics, furniture, vehicles, and rentals, while the item detail endpoint offers comprehensive information about individual listings, including descriptions, images, and geographic coordinates.
Parameters include `query` for search terms, `category` for specific item types, `price` bounds, `sort_by` for ordering results, and filters like `posted_today` or `has_image`. Each endpoint supports unique parameters tailored to its data type.
Response data is organized into a `meta` section containing request information and a `data` section with the actual listings. Each listing includes relevant fields such as `post_id`, `title`, and `price`, allowing for easy access to key details.
The data is sourced directly from Craigslist's official listings across 707 metros. The API ensures data accuracy by querying live listings, reflecting real-time availability and updates from Craigslist.
Typical use cases include building eCommerce platforms, creating local marketplace apps, or aggregating classified ads for research. Users can leverage the API to find specific items, compare prices, or track market trends in various categories.
Users can utilize the returned data by parsing the JSON response to extract relevant fields for display or analysis. For instance, they can filter listings by price or location, display images in galleries, or link directly to Craigslist posts for more details.
To obtain your API key, first sign in to your account and navigate to the API you want to use. From the API's Pricing section, choose a plan and complete the subscription process. Once subscribed, return to the API page and you will see your API Access Key displayed at the top of the documentation page. You can use this key to authenticate your requests.
You can’t switch APIs during the free trial. If you subscribe to a different API, your trial will end and the new subscription will start as a paid plan.
The free trial lasts for 7 days and allows you to make up to 50 API requests.
No, the free trial is available only once, so we recommend using it on the API that interests you the most. Most of our APIs offer a free trial, but some may not include this option.
Yes. If the API offers a free trial, you will see a "Free 7-Day Trial" option in its Pricing section. The trial lasts for 7 days and allows up to 50 API requests, enabling you to evaluate the API before subscribing to a paid plan.
Zyla API Hub is like a big store for APIs, where you can find thousands of them all in one place. We also offer dedicated support and real-time monitoring of all APIs. Once you sign up, you can pick and choose which APIs you want to use. Just remember, each API needs its own subscription. But if you subscribe to multiple ones, you'll use the same key for all of them, making things easier for you.
You can monitor your API usage through the response headers included with every request:
x-zyla-api-calls-monthly-used: Shows the total number of API requests you have used during the current billing period.
x-zyla-api-calls-monthly-remaining: Shows the number of API requests you have remaining for the current billing period.
Yes, you can cancel your subscription at any time. Simply go to the Pricing section of the API you're subscribed to and click the "Unsubscribe" button.
Please note that upgrades, downgrades, and cancellations take effect immediately. Once your subscription is canceled, access to the service will end immediately, regardless of any remaining API calls in your quota.
