OpenAPI Specification
openapi: 3.2.0
info:
title: Stophy Craigslist API
version: '1'
description: 'Every endpoint is a POST that takes its input as a JSON object body. Unknown fields are rejected with 400.
Responses leave out empty values: null, empty strings, empty objects and empty nested lists are not sent.
Text comes back whole. To get shorter responses, add ?maxTextLength= to the URL. Every text value longer than that is cut and ends with …. A screenshot is never cut, and a page whose text was cut has isTruncated set to true.
x-credits is what one call costs. Every call costs the same, whatever it returns, unless an operation''s description says it costs per 10 results, or per second of audio. Then x-credits is the lowest price and x-credits-max the most one call can cost. Where an operation takes limit, send it to return fewer results and pay for fewer.
When a response has a cursor, send it back unchanged with the same input to get the next page. When it has a page, send the next page number.
Endpoints whose security includes {} also work without an API key: 10 requests a minute and 50 a day per IP, and no paging.'
