Output

Shape of the run’s result, checked against 2 real answers:

{ pagination: { next_page_token }, properties: { id, link, price: { discount, breakdown: { ... }[], qualifier, total_price, original_price, extracted_discount, extracted_qualifier, price_per_qualifier, extracted_total_price, extracted_original_price, extracted_price_per_qualifier }, title, badges: string[], images: string[], rating, reviews, position, description, time_period, booking_link, booking_token, check_in_date, accommodations: string[], check_out_date, gps_coordinates: { latitude, longitude }, has_free_cancellation }[], search_metadata: { id, status, html_url, json_url, created_at, re... ...

The shape is cut here. Signed in, looot inspect searchapi-io-airbnb prints all of it.

Run it

Every call needs your API token in LOOOT_TOKEN; Sign in shows how to get one. Each run also needs a new idempotency key, so a retry never pays twice. With wait: 30 the answer comes back inline when the run ends within 30 seconds. Otherwise you get the running run back: poll GET /v1/runs/<runId>.

Example input with placeholder values:

curl -X POST "https://api.looot.ai/v1/runs" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $LOOOT_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Idempotency-Key: $(uuidgen)" \
  -d '{"endpointId":"searchapi-io-airbnb","input":{"q":"Girona","engine":"airbnb"},"wait":30}'
const response = await fetch("https://api.looot.ai/v1/runs", {
  method: "POST",
  headers: {
    Authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.LOOOT_TOKEN}`,
    "Content-Type": "application/json",
    "Idempotency-Key": crypto.randomUUID(),
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    endpointId: "searchapi-io-airbnb",
    input: {
      q: "Girona",
      engine: "airbnb",
    },
    wait: 30,
  }),
});
const run = await response.json();
console.log(run.status, run.result);
import os
import uuid

import requests

response = requests.post(
    "https://api.looot.ai/v1/runs",
    headers={
        "Authorization": f"Bearer {os.environ['LOOOT_TOKEN']}",
        "Idempotency-Key": str(uuid.uuid4()),
    },
    json={
        "endpointId": "searchapi-io-airbnb",
        "input": {
            "q": "Girona",
            "engine": "airbnb",
        },
        "wait": 30,
    },
    timeout=90,
)
run = response.json()
print(run["status"], run.get("result"))

To let looot pick among every provider of this job instead, send job:search.airbnb as endpointId; see the job page.
