How the Yodobashi Camera API works
Yodobashi Camera 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 491 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.
From a keyword to price after points and stock in every store
Search, open the products you care about, then check the stores.
48 products per page with price, points, stock and delivery date; maker_facets gives the maker codes for the maker filter.
Price with tax, Gold Point reward as points, rate and yen, the price after points, list price, stock, delivery date, category ranks and the spec sheet.
Every Yodobashi store with its own price and points, stock text, display and pickup time.
The top 20 of the product's category, with rank movement.
A dated Yodobashi price feed: price, points and price after points per product, plus where it is in stock today.

}What a Yodobashi field actually contains
Fields that read differently from how they look. Every row was measured against live yodobashi.com pages on 2026-10-14.
| Field | What it holds |
|---|---|
| sku | Yodobashi's 18-digit product number (100000001005925961), the number in yodobashi.com/product/<sku>/. Pass it unchanged to product, reviews and store_stock; a product URL works too. It is not a JAN barcode: yodobashi.com does not print the JAN, and the model number is part of the title. |
| price | Yen including consumption tax, as the page prints it with （税込）. It matched the page's structured data on every product checked. Products sold only in stores (some carrier iPhones) have price null and sales_status 店頭でのみ販売しています, never 0. |
| points, point_rate_pct, point_value_yen | The Gold Point reward printed under the price: 4,544 points, （10％還元） = 10 %, （￥4,544相当） = 4,544 yen. One Gold Point is worth one yen, and points equalled price × rate, rounded up, on every product checked (4,520 yen at 1 % = 46 points). Many products earn 10 %, some 1 % (game consoles, smartphones). |
| points_adjusted_price | price minus point_value_yen: what the product costs once the reward is counted (45,440 - 4,544 = 40,896). Yodobashi prints both numbers but not the subtraction; it is computed from them. |
| list_price, list_price_text | The maker's suggested retail price (希望小売価格) when the page prints one (￥1,078 above a 989 yen price); many products say オープンプライス (open price), returned in list_price_text with list_price null. |
| delivery_date, delivery_area | The delivery promise for yodobashi.com's default address 東京都新宿区 (Shinjuku, Tokyo), the same for every visitor. Other prefectures can get a different date. |
| rating_approx (search, ranking) | The star icon on the card, in quarter steps (4.5 for a product rated 4.61). The exact average is product.rating. |
| store_stock_count | How many Yodobashi stores hold stock (在庫のある店舗). It equalled the number of stores with in_stock true in store_stock on every product checked. |
Yodobashi shows the same price, points, stock and delivery promise to every visitor: one product read from three different countries in the same minute returned identical values. Prices are in yen including Japanese consumption tax.

Every number below was read from live yodobashi.com responses on 2026-10-14, in two consecutive runs of 76 calls each, 152 of 152 answered as expected.

Get a free key →Do I need a Yodobashi account?▾

Which search filters are there?▾
Category, maker, price range, five sort orders and include_discontinued. Each was checked against the unfiltered count in the same run: "SSD" 3,752 → one maker 254, 10,000 to 20,000 yen 322 (48 of 48 rows in range), from 100,000 yen 1,296, category 外付けSSD 179, with discontinued products 18,866.

One row per Yodobashi store (42 on 2026-10-14): name, prefecture, address, phone, the store's price and points, in-stock flag and text, whether it is on display, pickup time and opening hours. A store's price can differ from the online price: one earphone was 3,150 yen online and 2,860 yen in two stores.
How deep does ranking go?▾
Yodobashi publishes the top 20 of each category, and ranking returns those 20 with rank movement and days in the top 100. product.category_ranks gives the rank in every category the product belongs to, also past 20.

No. The same product read from three countries in the same minute returned the same price, points, stock and delivery date.
