}About the chileautos.cl API
The chileautos.cl API provides 3 endpoints to access vehicle listings and details from Chile's largest auto marketplace. Use search_listings to filter cars by brand and model across paginated results, get_listing_detail to retrieve full specs like transmission, fuel type, body style, and price for a specific listing, and get_brands to fetch the canonical brand values accepted by the search endpoint.
Endpoints and What They Return
The get_brands endpoint takes no input and returns an array of brand objects, each with a name (display label) and a value string used as the brand parameter in search_listings. This ensures filter values stay in sync with what the site recognizes — for example, Marca.Toyota. for Toyota.
The search_listings endpoint accepts optional brand, model, and page parameters. Brand and model values are auto-formatted with the required prefix/suffix if you omit them. Results include up to 26 listings per page, each containing id, title, price, year, location, make, model, and url. Note that the result set may include sponsored or promoted listings from other brands alongside organic results.
Listing Detail
The get_listing_detail endpoint takes a listing_id (e.g. CP-AD-8522747) sourced from search_listings results. It returns two objects: summary with high-level vehicle metadata — make, model, year, price, condition, fueltype, bodystyle, colour, state, and genericgeartype — and details with specification key-value pairs such as Transmisión, Puertas, Color exterior, and Precio. The slug parameter is accepted but does not affect the data returned; only listing_id is functionally required.
Coverage Notes

Does chileautos.cl have an official developer API?+
What does `get_listing_detail` return beyond what `search_listings` includes?+
search_listings returns a summary of each listing: id, title, price, year, location, make, model, and url. get_listing_detail expands on that with a summary object covering condition, fueltype, bodystyle, colour, state, and genericgeartype, plus a details object with granular spec key-value pairs such as Transmisión, Puertas, and Color exterior.Can I filter search results by price range or year?+
search_listings currently supports filtering by brand, model, and page, plus a raw query DSL string for advanced cases. Dedicated price-range or year parameters are not exposed as named inputs. You can fork the API on Parse and revise it to add those filter parameters if you need them.Are there sponsored or promoted listings mixed into search results?+
search_listings returns up to 26 listings per page and explicitly notes that promoted listings from other brands may appear alongside organic results. Your application should account for this when processing or displaying results.Does the API cover dealer contact information or seller details?+
get_listing_detail and search_listings. Seller or dealer contact information is not part of the response schema. You can fork the API on Parse and revise it to add a seller details endpoint if that data is available on the listing page.
