ShopSavvy for Webhooks

TypeScript

A service that polls products for price changes and sends JSON POST webhooks to your configured URLs. HMAC-SHA256 signed payloads for security.

Set up ShopSavvy for Webhooks

  1. 1

    Get a ShopSavvy Data API key

    Create a key at shopsavvy.com/data. Keys look like ss_live_ followed by 32 characters. Keep it out of source control.

  2. 2

    Install

    Get the integration from its repository and follow the README's install section: https://github.com/shopsavvy/shopsavvy-webhooks

    git clone https://github.com/shopsavvy/shopsavvy-webhooks.git
  3. 3

    Add your API key

    Set the SHOPSAVVY_API_KEY environment variable to your key (shell, .env file or Webhooks's secrets settings), or pass it to the client as the README shows.

  4. 4

    Make your first call

    From the shopsavvy/shopsavvy-webhooks README (Quick Start):

    # Install dependencies
    bun install
    
    # Set your API key (get one at https://shopsavvy.com/data)
    export SHOPSAVVY_API_KEY=ss_live_your_key_here
    
    # Configure products and webhook URLs
    export PRODUCT_IDS="B09XS7JWHH,012345678901"
    export WEBHOOK_URLS="https://your-server.com/webhook,https://hooks.slack.com/..."
    
    # Start monitoring
    bun run start

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 Webhooks. 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 Webhooks 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/shopsavvy-webhooks under the MIT license.

Powered by the ShopSavvy Data API

This integration connects to the ShopSavvy Data API: product data and current prices from tens of thousands of retailers, across 30M+ products, with price history back to 2011, dense from 2019. Look up products by barcode, ASIN, URL or keyword, compare prices, read history and schedule refreshes.
