## FAQ

### What data does the reichelt Product Data API return?

Electronics and components shop: search and product details with prices, availability and technical data. The API has 2 endpoints under the /rch path – search products and product details – and every response is structured JSON that starts with responseStatus and responseMessage.

### What does “beta” mean for the reichelt API?

The endpoints and response fields are usable today, but they can still change and the platform is not yet counted in the headline success rate. Blocked or failed calls are not billed.

### How much does the reichelt API cost?

A call to the reichelt API counts as 1 request against the monthly quota. The reichelt API is included in every plan and shares one quota with all other platforms: 100 free requests a month; paid plans from €30 a month for 5,000 requests (€1.00–€6.00 per 1,000 requests). Failed requests (5xx, blocked pages) are not counted.

### Is the reichelt data realtime?

Yes. Each request loads the live reichelt page when you call the API – there is no database of old snapshots in between.

### Do I need a reichelt account or an official reichelt API key?

No. You only need an everydata.io API key, sent in the x-api-key header. The free plan works without a credit card.

### What happens when reichelt blocks a request?

The API retries the fetch automatically. If the page still cannot be loaded you get a 502 or 503 error, and that request costs no quota. Success rates and response times per platform are measured around the clock on the status page.

### Can ChatGPT, Claude or an AI agent use the reichelt API?

Yes. Connect the hosted everydata.io MCP server and the assistant can call every reichelt endpoint as a tool, or register the plain HTTPS endpoints as functions in any agent framework. The endpoint list is also in /llms.txt and the OpenAPI spec.
