How the Lider API works

Lider is a normal ReefAPI surface — the same four rules that hold for every other engine on the key.

01
Authenticate
x-api-key header

No OAuth app, no request signing, no per-site account. One key covers all 491 engines.

02
Call
POST /lider/v1/…

Every route is a POST with a JSON body. Parameters are validated against the published schema before anything is charged.

03
Pay
3 credit per call

Credits, not seats. Failed and blocked calls are never charged, and cache hits cost nothing.

04
Read
{ ok, data, meta, error }

One envelope everywhere. meta carries latency_ms, record_count and the endpoint that answered.

From a search to a priced product sheet

Search a catalogue, narrow it with Lider's own filter values, then read the products that matter in full.

01search?query=leche
GET/lider/v1/search?query=leche

About 44 products with price, Rebaja saving, multi-buy deal, unit price and stock, plus Lider's total and its filter values (brands, categories, campaigns, seals) with counts.

02search?query=leche&brand=Soprole&sort=price_low
GET/lider/v1/search?query=leche&brand=Soprole&sort=price_low

The same search narrowed with a value copied from facets, cheapest first.

03product?item_id=00780290000130
GET/lider/v1/product?item_id=00780290000130

UPC, all images, description, specification table, nutrition rows and the pickup and delivery labels.

A dated feed of Lider prices, savings and multi-buy deals in CLP, with the product facts behind each item.

What a Lider field actually contains

Fields that read differently from how they look. Every row was measured against live Lider pages on 2026-10-14.

FieldWhat it holds
price, price_displayThe shelf price in Chilean pesos as a whole number, and Lider's own text. Lider writes thousands with a dot and no decimals: "$1.299.990" is 1,299,990 CLP. On 51 products the price matched the price Lider renders on the product card 51 times.
list_price, savings_amountThe crossed-out price and Lider's own saving on a Rebaja ("Costaba $1.190", "Ahorra $100"). list_price minus price equals the saving. Matched the rendered card on 51 of 51 products.
multibuyDeals that need several units: quantity, total, per_unit and the label. "Combina 2 x $3.000" means two units for 3,000 CLP, mixable across the products carrying the same label (mix_and_match true). Found on 53 of 453 supermarket rows, 29 of 48 on a cookie search.
unit_price, unit_price_displayLider's price per litre, kilo, unit or 10 g, exactly as Lider prints it. Lider's own figure is occasionally wrong ("$99 x lt" on a 1 L carton costing $1.190); it is returned as printed, not corrected.
sold_by_weight, price_per, weight_increment_kgLoose produce and bakery sold by weight: price is per kilo ("$1.990/kg") and weight_increment_kg is the step a shopper adds (0.5). 23 of 453 supermarket rows.
store, item_idThe catalogue the row comes from and Lider's 14-digit product id. The supermarket and the general store are different catalogues; pass both to product to stay in the same one.
seller, seller_typeLider itself (INTERNAL) or the Marketplace seller's shop name (EXTERNAL, for example LG Electronics) in the general store. In product, offer_type is 1P or 3P.
total, max_pageLider's own count of matches and its last page. Pages stop near 1,000 results even when the count is larger (televisor: 6,514 matches, 23 pages).

Prices are the ones Lider shows a visitor who has not picked a store: the site's default store in Santiago (Vitacura) for the supermarket. Read from a Chilean connection and from abroad in the same minutes, 248 products gave identical prices and stock.

FAQ

Have a question? We got answers.

The questions people actually ask before wiring up Lider.

Get a free key →
Do I need a Lider account or a Lider BCI card?▾

No. Everything is read logged out. The Tarjeta Lider BCI discount is applied in Lider's cart, not on product pages, so it is not part of the data.

Supermarket or general store?▾

Both. Pass store=supermercado (default) or store=catalogo. They are separate catalogues: "televisor" matched 47 products in the supermarket and 6,514 in the general store on 2026-10-14.

Which filters are there?▾

brand, category, campaign, seal, seller_type, min_price and max_price, each checked against the unfiltered count in the same run: "leche" 575, brand Soprole 60, campaign Precio Lider 125, category Lácteos 340, seal "alto en azúcares" 33, price 1,000-2,000 CLP 165. Values are exact and case-sensitive; copy them from facets in any search answer.

Can I sort and page?▾

Yes: sort by relevance, price low to high or high to low, and page through about 44 products per page. max_page tells you the last page; asking for a page past it returns no rows and beyond_last_page true.

Can I choose a comuna or a store?▾

Not yet. Prices are the site's default store in Santiago, which is what a visitor sees before choosing a delivery address. The answer names the store it priced.

Do you return stock counts?▾

Lider publishes a stock state (IN_STOCK or OUT_OF_STOCK), not a count, and that is what is returned. Out-of-stock products stay in the results.

How fresh is the data?▾

Every call reads Lider live; nothing is cached. In two runs a search took 2.6 seconds at the median and a product 2.6 to 2.7 seconds.

Are sponsored products marked?▾

Yes. sponsored is true on paid placements Lider mixes into results (0 to 6 per page in our runs), and sponsored_count gives the total per page.

What is the Lider API?▾

Lider API is a ReefAPI endpoint group for walmart chile's supermarket and general store: clp shelf prices, rebaja and multi-buy deals, unit price and full product data. It returns live JSON through POST requests under /lider/v1.

Is the Lider API free to try?▾

Yes. ReefAPI starts with 1,000 free credits, no card required. Lider calls use the same shared credit balance as every other ReefAPI engine.

Do I need a Lider login or account?▾

No login to Lider is needed for the API response. You call ReefAPI with your x-api-key header, and the playground can run live examples before you create a production key.

How fresh is the Lider data?▾

The page example is captured from a live search call, and production requests fetch live data through ReefAPI rather than a static sample.

How many credits does the Lider API use?▾

Lider actions currently cost 3 credits per successful call. Failed or blocked calls are free. All APIs draw from one credit pool.

Can I call Lider from an AI assistant or MCP client?▾

Yes. Connect ReefAPI once through MCP and your assistant can call lider actions with the same key, credit pool and JSON envelope used by normal REST requests.

Try it on your own data before you pay anything

The call above is the real endpoint, not a recording. A free key gives you 1,000 credits, the other 490 APIs, and the same envelope everywhere.

Endpoints, parameters and credit costs on this page are read from the live catalog and cannot drift from what the API accepts. Field notes were captured on 2026-10-14.
