Features
Use Cases
What data, how often, which direction
- Data
- Product records, current offers from tens of thousands of retailers and price history back to 2011, dense from 2019, from the ShopSavvy Data API. Prices are in US dollars.
- How often
- Every offer carries the time it was last checked. With the Data API you can schedule refreshes hourly, daily or weekly for retailers we can re-check through an official retailer API; other retailers update as ShopSavvy sees them.
- Direction
- ShopSavvy data flows into Discord Bot. Requests carry only what you ask about (identifiers, search terms or schedules) and your API key.
FAQ
Do I need an API key?
Yes. The Discord Bot integration calls the ShopSavvy Data API, which needs a Data API key. Create one at shopsavvy.com/data, then add it as the setup steps above show.
What data does it return?
ShopSavvy product records (title, brand, model, barcode, ASIN), current offers from tens of thousands of retailers with price, availability and condition, and price history back to 2011, dense from 2019. Products can be looked up by barcode, ASIN, URL or model number. Prices are in US dollars.
How fresh are the prices?
Every offer carries the time ShopSavvy last checked it, so you can see how current each price is. Through the Data API you can schedule refreshes hourly, daily or weekly for retailers we can re-check through an official retailer API; other retailers update as ShopSavvy sees them.
Is my API key stored securely?
The README has you supply it through the SHOPSAVVY_API_KEY environment variable or your own configuration, so it stays out of source code. The key is sent to the ShopSavvy API (api.shopsavvy.com) over HTTPS in the Authorization header. You can revoke a key and create a new one at shopsavvy.com/data/api-keys.
Is it open source?
Yes. The source is on GitHub at https://github.com/shopsavvy/discord-shopsavvy-bot under the MIT license.
