Click Endpoints to go back to the Wayfair API documentation. On the left is the list of the type of data that can be retrieved with the Wayfair API.
Click on any one of the headings to expand the endpoints list. For example, Product to fetch product details such as price and deals. And select the product/search endpoint to search for a specific product and scrape the product details.
Under Required Parameters, enter the keyword for the products to search for on Wayfair.
The Optional Parameters are not required but can be used to filter the results and sort them. We’ll change the itemsperpage parameter to 10 and leave the rest as they are.
To view the result, click the Test Endpoint button. The result will be displayed in JSON format under the Results section on the right, if the parameters are valid.
The API endpoint URL along with the headers–which will be required to import Wayfair data to Google Sheets–can be found in the Code Snippets section.
Change the language from Node.js (Axios) to Shell→cURL. Copy the URL and note also the headers.

Note: The endpoint will return several thousands of distinct data–more than the limit Google Sheets can handle. So, it is recommended that some datasets are deleted and imported separately.
The data will be imported into Google Sheets in a moment. Below is a snippet of the data imported into Google Sheets from Wayfair.
We can likewise scrape data for a specific product, retrieve reviews, and a bunch of other information.
