FAQ

About the Alibaba API

The AnyAPI Alibaba API returns Alibaba data as normalized JSON across 1 endpoint: search. You call one endpoint per job with a single key, and AnyAPI returns one normalized schema whichever source serves it. Pricing is in US dollars, $0.88 per 1,000 results, and never more than $0.022 for a single request, with no subscription and no monthly minimum. Over the last 30 days, 98.3% of Alibaba calls through AnyAPI succeeded, with a median response time of 7.7 seconds across 1,662 measured calls.

Pricing is in US dollars, $0.88 per 1,000 results, and never more than $0.022 for a single request, with no subscription and no monthly minimum. You fund one USD wallet and each call draws it down. Some failed wallet-funded requests incur processing charges that we pass through at cost, with no markup; the error response shows the amount charged.

One endpoint: search. Every one takes the same authentication and returns the same normalized response shape, so reaching a second Alibaba endpoint is a change of URL and nothing else.

Over the last 30 days, 98.3% of Alibaba calls through AnyAPI succeeded, with a median response time of 7.7 seconds across 1,662 measured calls. These are AnyAPI's own measurements of traffic through the gateway, recomputed continuously, not a published service-level target.
