Access SayWeee Asian grocery product data via API: search by keyword, fetch product details, browse deals, bestsellers, and new arrivals with pricing and discount info.
What is the SayWeee API?
The SayWeee API provides 6 endpoints covering product search, detail lookup, and category browsing across the SayWeee Asian grocery catalog. search_products accepts any keyword and returns matching products with id, name, price, and image_url, while get_category_products exposes paginated browsing across categories including meat, seafood, fruits, vegetables, and sale items — each result including discount_percentage and base_price for price comparison.

Full-text search over the SayWeee product catalog by keyword. Returns normalized product summaries (id, name, price, image_url) and a total count. Not paginated; use limit to control result count.

}About the SayWeee API
Search and Product Lookup
search_products takes a required query string (e.g. 'tofu', 'rice', 'noodles') and an optional limit integer. It returns a total count of matching products plus a products array, each item carrying id, name, price, and image_url. Note that this endpoint is not paginated — use limit to control the result window. To retrieve full detail for a single item, pass its numeric ID to get_product_detail; the optional slug parameter (e.g. 'Sekka-Premium-Japanese-Medium-Grain-Rice') improves URL accuracy but does not change the data returned.
Category Browsing
get_category_products accepts a category key from a fixed set: 'new', 'trending', 'meat', 'seafood', 'fruits', 'vegetables', or 'sale'. Results are paginated via offset and limit and include richer fields than search results: category_name, unit_price, sold_count_ui, discount_percentage, and base_price alongside the standard id, name, price, and image_url.
Convenience Endpoints
Three focused endpoints wrap get_category_products for the most common use cases: get_new_arrivals (equivalent to category='new'), get_bestsellers (equivalent to category='trending'), and get_deals (equivalent to category='sale'). All three return the same paginated response shape including discount fields, so they can be used interchangeably with the generic category endpoint depending on whether you want a named shortcut or flexible category selection in a single call.
The SayWeee API is a managed, monitored endpoint for sayweee.com — not a raw scraper you maintain. Every endpoint is automatically health-checked on a schedule, and when sayweee.com changes and a check fails, the API is automatically queued for repair and re-verified. It is built to keep working as the site underneath it changes.
This isn't an official sayweee.com API — it's an independent, maintained REST wrapper over public data. Where the source has no official API (or only a limited one), Parse gives you a stable contract over a source that never promised one, and keeps it current. Need a new endpoint or field? You can revise it yourself in plain English and the agent rebuilds it against the live site in minutes — contributing the change back to the shared API is free.

Does SayWeee have an official developer API?+
What discount-related fields does `get_category_products` return, and are they available in search results?+
get_category_products, get_deals, get_bestsellers, and get_new_arrivals all return discount_percentage and base_price alongside the current price, letting you compute savings. search_products returns only id, name, price, and image_url — the discount fields are not included in search results.Is `search_products` paginated?+
search_products is not paginated. It returns up to limit results in a single response. If you need to page through a large result set, get_category_products supports offset and limit parameters for standard pagination.
