DuckDuckGo Search API endpoint
Returns DuckDuckGo shopping results for a query string: title, brand, merchant, description, price, rating, and review count, plus total page count. DuckDuckGo's shopping vertical is ad-funded, syndicated product listings, not organic content; every product link is wrapped in an ad-click-tracking redirect with no clean destination to unwrap, so no destination URL is returned. DuckDuckGo's own pagination token for this vertical is an opaque per-response blob rather than a plain page offset, so only the first page is supported.
/duckduckgo/shoppingQuery parameters:
q (required) — the search query.region (optional) — DuckDuckGo market code, e.g. us-en, uk-en.Notable response behavior:
