Parameters

Query parameters

Useful optional inputs

sort — Choose the documented source ordering before paging through results.
Ordering keeps the normal endpoint price and does not guarantee exhaustive results.
dry_run — Read a free estimate before fetching sources or scheduling paid work.
Zero credits; cache status and availability are snapshots rather than guarantees.

Response

Response fields and example

This example is illustrative, not a captured live response. Variable-cost operations may settle a charge different from the list price below. A successful response puts the platform payload in data and reports the exact credits used, remaining balance, request id and cache status beside it.

Optional fields reviewed from preserved successful responses. Additive fields and source variations remain allowed; validate the fields your workflow requires.

The example is invented and illustrates types only; zero and empty values are not claims about a real result.

Failures use the typed error envelope. A confirmed uncharged or refunded failure reports zero; a pending reconciliation can report an unknown charge. Read credits_used and error.details.billing_status, and keep request_id for recovery. Response contract · Error reference
