CarGurus Dealer Stats API

openapi: 3.0.3
info:
  title: CarGurus Developer APIs
  description: >-
    Documented HTTP APIs published by CarGurus under the /Cars/api/ path. Four
    surfaces are described here: the open (no-auth) Car Selector API for building
    new/used listing search widgets, and three partner/dealer-gated APIs -
    Instant Market Value (IMV), Dealer Reviews, and Dealer Stats. The gated APIs
    authenticate with an appId and authToken issued by CarGurus and are passed as
    query parameters alongside a JSON body. Endpoint paths, methods, and the Car
    Selector, IMV, and Dealer Reviews schemas are taken directly from CarGurus
    developer documentation; the Dealer Stats response is modeled from CarGurus
    documentation and published examples (endpointsModeled). CarGurus does not
    publish a public inventory-listings pull API - dealer inventory is ingested
    via inventory feeds (feed providers / IMT) - and leads are delivered to
    dealer CRMs rather than exposed here.
