Jiji seller
A seller's public page: id and code, name, slug, description, photo, social links, store addresses with opening hours and map links (for sellers that run a Jiji shop), business label, member since, last seen, followers, feedback count, verification labels, premium flag, live listings count and top categories. Phone numbers are never returned.
Every response includes credits_used: the credits this call cost.
Part of the Jiji API: 15 endpoints with prices, use cases and example responses.
Parameters
| name | type | description |
|---|---|---|
sellerrequired | string | Seller code (24 characters), shop name (e.g. samabglobalng) or a Jiji seller page or shop link. Example: samabglobalng |
country | ng | ke | gh | ug | tz | et | Country site: ng (default), ke, gh, ug, tz or et. |
Every endpoint also takes fresh, raw, fields (see lean responses and caching).
Example
curl "https://api.api.sh/jiji/v1/seller?seller=samabglobalng" \
-H "x-api-key: $APISH_KEY" import os, requests
res = requests.get(
"https://api.api.sh/jiji/v1/seller",
params={"seller": "samabglobalng"},
headers={"x-api-key": os.environ["APISH_KEY"]},
timeout=120,
)
res.raise_for_status()
data = res.json() const url = new URL("https://api.api.sh/jiji/v1/seller");
url.searchParams.set("seller", "samabglobalng");
const res = await fetch(url, { headers: { "x-api-key": process.env.APISH_KEY } });
if (!res.ok) throw new Error(`${res.status} ${await res.text()}`);
const data = await res.json(); Response
A JSON object with the fields described above, plus raw (the source's own data), cached, fetched_at and credits_used. Errors return {"success": false, "error": "…"} with the HTTP status (see errors). A lookup that ran but found nothing (404) costs the price above; refused calls and errors on our side are free (what's charged).
Example response (real call, trimmed: lists cut to 2 items, long text shortened, raw left out)
