What Che168 data does the API return?

Each listing as a standard car record: make, model and generation from a shared catalog, year, mileage, price and currency, location, photos and equipment, plus inspections and history reports when Che168 publishes them.

How do I select Che168 in the API?

Call /domains once to read the site ID of Che168 for your key, then pass it as domains[] to /search or /cars.

What if the same car is on several sites?

It is one car with several listings. Each listing keeps its own site, ID, price and link, so you see every place the car is offered.

How do I keep a copy in sync?

Use the /cars export: start without a cursor and follow next_url until it ends. Run it again to refresh your copy.

Ask for a free demo key and tell us which sites you need. It returns real data in the same JSON as the paid plans.
