Product API - Nike

Real-time product information

While most of the information in Monotote API's is close to real-time, it's technically impossible to always return real-time information. To trigger an update however, you can queue a product update request yourself using our API's.

Product updates can be requested by the publisher by calling our endpoint. This endpoint is RATE LIMITED to prevent abuse (the current limit = 750 API-calls per minute). If you feel the rate limit is too low, you can move to bulk product updates, see below.

Bulk product updates

For restock product information, sizes, colours etc, we will tell you whenever a product is updated. We do this through fully automated webhooks. You tell us what products you want updates for. You can set up filters for the information you require, and we will notify you whenever an update occurs. Subscribe to the Nike webhook here: Monotote Dashboard

Catalogs

It's important to know that Monotote works with the concept of catalogs. Catalogs are groups of products. Catalogs can be created manually in your publisher dashboard, or automatically based on searches on the Nike website. Some APIs are tailored for these catalogs, for example get products by catalog & get facets (filters) by catalog.

Feeds vs APIs

The API is a real-time data provider for Nike products.

Feeds

A feed is a static file on a server that’s generated once in a while. A feed is also limited in size (fairly big), and without pagination. Feeds are outdated the minute they’re generated, which is why everything we do at Monotote is API-based.

API

An API is an Application Programming Interface. It’s a piece of software that is queryable, can be paginated, can be searched on, sorted on, always contains the latest information, etc.
