How this service works
Zinc is infrastructure for developers to search products, place orders, and track shipments through one API. Automate your buying process. Start building now!
Output
Returns a status field, the echoed query string, and an array of product SKU objects — each containing the product title, retailer name, product URL (passable directly to /orders to purchase), brand, image URL, price in cents, star rating, number of reviews, and availability boolean. The results array defaults to empty if no matches are found.
Example use cases
Price comparison before automated purchase
“Search for 'Sony WH-1000XM5 headphones' across retailers and give me back the listings with their prices and availability so I can pick the best one to order.”
Gift sourcing for a specific product
“Can you search Zinc for 'LEGO Technic set' and find me available listings with prices and ratings? I want to buy one as a gift.”
Inventory scouting for resale automation
“Use Zinc to search for 'Apple AirPods Pro 2nd generation' and list all the available results with retailer names, prices, and URLs so my buying bot can evaluate them.”
Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://api.zinc.com/agent/search?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need to discover buyable product listings across multiple retailers in a single call, especially as the first step in an automated procurement workflow where the returned product URLs will be passed to an order placement endpoint. Prefer this over retailer-specific search APIs when you want cross-retailer coverage without managing multiple integrations. Ideal for agent workflows that combine search → select → buy in sequence.
Side effects
- Empty results array if no products match the search term
- Missing or null price/brand/image fields for listings where retailer doesn't expose that data
- Network timeout if retailer APIs are slow to respond
- Payment failure (402) if USDC balance is insufficient for the $0.01 per-call fee
- Invalid or malformed query string may return zero results
