Ejecución gestionada
Cada cifra de abajo se lee directamente del catálogo de endpoints en vivo de Autotrader — 3 endpoints, 20 parámetros de solicitud documentados y 3 esquemas de respuesta publicados — el mismo catálogo contra el que corren Docs y Playground.
3 documented Autotrader endpoints, grouped into 3 request families — Dealer, Search and Vehicle.
20 request parameters are documented across those Autotrader endpoints, 5 of them required — the full input contract is public before you write any integration code.
3 of the 3 Autotrader endpoints ship a recorded example response, and 3 carry a documented response schema — you can code against the real JSON before the first request.
Autotrader endpoints document their error responses (400, 404, 500 and 503) alongside the success schema, so a block, a rate limit, or a missing record comes back as a typed error rather than silently empty data.
3 hosted MCP tools back the Autotrader endpoints, so an agent can call the same routes with the same parameters and the same JSON contract, with no custom glue.

Catálogo de endpoints
/autotrader/searchSearches Autotrader for new and used car listings, returning vehicle summaries (make, model, trim, year, mileage, pricing, images) plus the total matching count.
Notas de la respuesta
- `total_count` reflects Autotrader's full matching-result count for the applied filters, not just `len(vehicles)`. - An invalid `condition`, `body_style`, or `seller_type` value returns `400` before any upstream request is made. - A search with no matching listings returns `200` with `"vehicles": []` and `total_count: 0`, not an error. - `pricing.no_price_label` (e.g. `"Contact Dealer For Price"`) is set instead of a numeric price when the dealer requires direct contact for pricing. - `stats` reports price and model-year aggregates (min/average/max) across the FULL matching result set for the applied filters, not just the returned page — useful for market-research callers who want the shape of the whole matching inventory. It is omitted when Autotrader's page does not carry this aggregate for the request.
Herramienta MCP autotrader_search
/autotrader/vehicle/{id}Returns an Autotrader vehicle listing: full vehicle spec (make, model, trim, mileage, colors, transmission, fuel type, engine, images, pricing), the full listing description, and seller detail (dealership or private seller).
Notas de la respuesta
- `id` must be numeric; a non-numeric value returns `400` before any upstream request is made. - A listing id that is well-formed but no longer exists (sold, removed, or never existed) returns `404`, not an empty `200`. - `dealer` is omitted when Autotrader's page does not carry a resolvable seller record for the listing (parser drift or an incomplete listing). - `pricing.no_price_label` (e.g. `"Contact Dealer For Price"`) is set instead of a numeric price when the dealer requires direct contact for pricing. - `similar_listings` is a list of vehicle summaries (the same shape as a search result, not full detail) for other listings Autotrader surfaces as similar on the same page. It is omitted when Autotrader's page does not carry a similar-listings shelf for this vehicle.
Herramienta MCP autotrader_vehicle
/autotrader/dealer/{id}Returns an Autotrader dealer profile (name, phone, address, rating, website) plus a first page of the dealer's own current inventory as vehicle summaries and the dealer's total listing count.
Notas de la respuesta
- `id` must be numeric; a non-numeric value returns `400` before any upstream request is made. - A dealer id that is well-formed but has no resolvable dealer record returns `404`, not an empty `200`. - `inventory` is a first batch of the dealer's own current listings (the page Autotrader itself renders), not the dealer's entire lot. `total_count` reports the dealer's true current listing count, which may be larger than `len(inventory)`. - `is_private_seller` is `true` for a private-individual seller profile rather than a dealership.

Cómo hacer scraping de Autotrader
Crawlora's Autotrader endpoints return vehicle search results, listing detail, and dealer profiles as normalized JSON with one API key — no HTML parsing required. Autotrader's search, vehicle and dealer routes use three different identifiers and inputs, and the documented contract matters more than the example call: make and model take Autotrader's own codes, and a model requires a make.
Send a make, model, and location to /autotrader/search for normalized vehicle summaries — price, year, mileage, colors, and transmission.
Pass a listing id to /autotrader/vehicle for the full vehicle spec, including drivetrain and fuel type.
Pass a dealer id to /autotrader/dealer for the dealer profile plus a first page of current inventory.
Re-run searches on a schedule to track price, mileage, and inventory changes.
make takes Autotrader's code (for example TOYOTA, HONDA or BMW) and model takes a model code such as CAMRY, which requires make. A ZIP must be five digits and radius is in miles, so normalize user input before the call.
The vehicle route takes the numeric segment of a /cars-for-sale/vehicle/{id} URL, and the dealer route takes the numeric segment of a /car-dealers/{id} URL. They are different id spaces, so store which one you hold.
Search returns vehicle summaries (make, model, trim, year, mileage, pricing, images) plus a total matching count. The vehicle route adds the full specification, listing description and seller detail, and the dealer route adds a profile and a first page of that dealer's inventory with a total listing count.
On 2026-10-30 /autotrader/vehicle/788444963 answered 503 autotrader returned a page without a __NEXT_DATA__ payload, while /autotrader/dealer/670936 returned AutoNation Toyota South Austin with rating 5 from 15,166 ratings and 25 inventory rows.
