How the Waitrose UK Groceries API works
Waitrose UK Groceries is a normal ReefAPI surface — the same four rules that hold for every other engine on the key.
No OAuth app, no request signing, no per-site account. One key covers all 438 engines.
Every route is a POST with a JSON body. Parameters are validated against the published schema before anything is charged.
Credits, not seats. Failed and blocked calls are never charged, and cache hits cost nothing.
One envelope everywhere. meta carries latency_ms, record_count and the endpoint that answered.
Find a product, then add its barcode and label
Search rows carry the composite id. Full detail publishes the barcode list and product label.
Read id, GBP shelf price and unit-price denominator from the returned products.
Read barcodes, GTIN, ingredients, nutrition and packaging for the same product.
A product record with a stable retailer id, preserved barcode strings and separate shelf/member amounts. Both measured runs matched five search ids to their full details.
