# Kohl's Search API (https://www.socialcrawl.dev/platforms/kohls/search)

> Returns one page of Kohl's products for a keyword, 12 per page by default, each with product id, name, current and original price, images, colours, rating, and the product page URL. Sort by featured (default), newest, price_low, price_high, rating, or percent_off. filters is a Kohl's dimension string from the live payload (Color:Black, Brand:Nike, Price:Under $10); combine values with commas. A query the origin cannot match still returns a handful of unrelated popular products rather than an empty page. There is no product-detail endpoint on this surface: feed a returned product id into GET /v1/kohls/reviews or GET /v1/kohls/questions.

TL;DR: `GET /v1/kohls/search` costs 5 credits per call and returns SocialCrawl's unified JSON schema. Single x-api-key auth, 100 free credits on signup.

## Parameters

| Parameter | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `query` | yes | Search keyword, for example jeans, tshirt, towels. |
| `page` | no | Page number, starting at 1. Prefer the universal cursor parameter. |
| `limit` | no | Products per page, 1 to 48. Default 12. Values above 48 are clamped. The origin default of 120 is a half-megabyte facet dump and is not forwarded. |
| `sort_by` | no | Result ordering: featured (default), newest, price_low, price_high, rating, or percent_off. (featured \| newest \| price_low \| price_high \| rating \| percent_off) |
| `filters` | no | Kohl's dimension filter string. Example: Color:Black. Combine with commas. Dimension ids appear on every search payload under payload.dimensions. |
| `max_pages` | no | 1 to 50 (default 1, or 50 when `max_items` or `max_credits` is sent). Walk up to this many pages in one call and return the rows from all of them. Each page walked is billed exactly as one call to this endpoint (a cached page is free) and counts against your rate limit; its charge and any refund are recorded under the page's own request id, listed in `data.walk.request_ids`. The walk stops early at the last page, or when the request's time budget runs low; `data.walk.stopped` says why (`end`, `max_pages`, `max_items`, `max_credits`, `time_budget`, `page_error`) and `pagination.next_cursor` continues from where it stopped. |
| `max_items` | no | 1 to 5000. Get more in one call: keep walking pages until the response holds at least this many rows, then stop with `data.walk.stopped: "max_items"`. The last page is returned whole (it was billed), so `data.items` can hold up to one page more than this, and `pagination.next_cursor` resumes right after it without skipping a row. Walks up to 50 pages unless `max_pages` says fewer; each page is billed as one call (a cached page is free). Add `max_credits` to cap the spend. A long walk can stop on the time budget first (`"time_budget"`): send the returned cursor with the same params to continue. |
| `max_credits` | no | 1 to 100000. The most this call may spend, across every page it walks. A page starts only while the credits already spent plus that page's price (or, when higher, the most any page of this walk has cost) still fit, so the call never goes past it; the walk then stops with `data.walk.stopped: "max_credits"` and the cursor to resume. Sent alone, it walks as far as the budget goes (up to 50 pages). A value below the price of one page is a free 400 whose `error.details.page_credits` names that price. Credits a row join (`include=`) adds are known only once a page has run, so page 1 is checked against its own price. |
