Managed execution
Every figure below is read from the live Yahoo Shopping endpoint catalog — 7 endpoints, 14 documented request parameters, and 7 published response schemas — the same catalog Docs and Playground run against.
7 documented Yahoo Shopping endpoints, grouped into 7 request families — Article, Category and Home, plus 4 more.
14 request parameters are documented across those Yahoo Shopping endpoints, 11 of them required — the full input contract is public before you write any integration code.
7 of the 7 Yahoo Shopping endpoints ship a recorded example response, and 7 carry a documented response schema — you can code against the real JSON before the first request.
Yahoo Shopping endpoints document their error responses (400, 404, 429, 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.
7 hosted MCP tools back the Yahoo Shopping endpoints, so an agent can call the same routes with the same parameters and the same JSON contract, with no custom glue.

Endpoint catalog
/yahoo-shopping/homeReturns Yahoo Shopping's homepage editorial story feed: title, destination URL, category, and thumbnail image for each story. Page follows Yahoo's own path-segment pagination. This is Yahoo's shopping buying-guide/deals content site, not a product-results API.
Response notes
- `category` is derived from the story's own URL path (e.g. `style`, `beauty`, `home-garden`) and is omitted only if the URL doesn't match the expected Shopping article path; singular `/article/` and plural `/articles/` paths are accepted. - `pagination.next_page` is omitted when the page has no higher numbered link. - Yahoo Shopping exposes no editorial sort or filter controls. The homepage is not a product-results feed. - A blocked or CAPTCHA-served response returns `503`.
Sampled 14 Oct 2026: 40 items, 4 fields filled in every item, 1 not. category: home-garden (16), beauty (4), style (4) and 3 more; title: “The best vacuum cleaners for 2026, tested and reviewed” and 39 other values.
MCP tool yahoo_shopping_home
/yahoo-shopping/categoryReturns the story cards displayed by a Yahoo Shopping section or nested topic, with page-based pagination. Some curated sections include cross-category or sibling Yahoo links. Use /yahoo-shopping/categories to discover the complete parent/topic taxonomy.
Sampled 14 Oct 2026: 16 items, 5 fields filled in every item. title: “It's the first day of fall — these are the 5 pieces every g…” and 15 other values; url: shopping.yahoo.com.
MCP tool yahoo_shopping_category
/yahoo-shopping/articleReturns a single Yahoo Shopping article's full content: title, description, author, publish/update time, section, image, keywords, original publisher, and body paragraphs. Accepts a canonical shopping.yahoo.com article URL, such as one returned by the home or category story streams.
Response notes
- `provider` is the original outlet Yahoo Shopping syndicates the story from (e.g. "Yahoo Life"), separate from Yahoo Shopping itself. - `keywords` contains the tag-like keywords attached to this individual article. Yahoo Shopping has no global tag directory or tag-filter endpoint. - `author_url`, when present, is the public author profile linked from the article byline. Pass its final path segment to `/yahoo-shopping/author`. - `paragraphs` can be an empty array for an article whose metadata loaded but whose body content did not render -- this is returned as a normal `200`, not an error. A response missing *both* metadata and body paragraphs is treated as an upstream error (parser drift or a block), not a silent empty success. - A `url` that isn't a `shopping.yahoo.com` article URL returns `400`.
Sampled 14 Oct 2026: 11 of 11 fields returned with a value. published_at: 2026-08-06; section: “Clothing”.
MCP tool yahoo_shopping_article
/yahoo-shopping/storesReturns Yahoo Shopping's retailer store directory: a slug, display name, and logo image for each retailer with a dedicated store page (e.g. Amazon, Target, Best Buy). Use a store's slug with GET /yahoo-shopping/store to read its current deals.
Response notes
- This is a fixed directory of retailers Yahoo Shopping currently features -- not every online retailer, and the set can change over time.
Sampled 14 Oct 2026: 18 items, 3 fields filled in every item. store: “amazon” and 17 other values; logo_url: s.yimg.com.
MCP tool yahoo_shopping_stores
/yahoo-shopping/storeReturns one retailer's current deals on Yahoo Shopping: product title, direct retailer product URL, image, brand, currency, price, and sale price for each offer. Sourced from the retailer's shopping.yahoo.com store page's own structured product data -- not a keyword search, a fixed set of currently-featured deals for that retailer. Use GET /yahoo-shopping/stores to find a retailer's slug.
Response notes
- This is **not** a keyword search -- there is no query term. Each retailer's store page carries a fixed set of currently-featured deals (confirmed live: 10 per retailer), which changes as Yahoo's own feed updates. - `url` is the real, direct retailer product URL (e.g. `www.target.com/p/...`), decoded server-side from Yahoo's own affiliate-tracking redirect -- not the tracking link itself. - `price` is the item's regular price and `sale_price` is the current discounted price; both are omitted (zero) if not present on the upstream offer. - An unrecognized `store` slug returns `404`.
Sampled 14 Oct 2026: 10 items, 7 fields filled in every item. price: 9.99 to 349.99, median 69.99; title: “RYZE Organic Medium Roast Mushroom Coffee - 4.2oz: Arabica…” and 9 other values.
MCP tool yahoo_shopping_store
/yahoo-shopping/shopping-listsReturns Yahoo Shopping's curated shopping-lists directory: a slug, title, and image for each themed list (e.g. "Cooling Essentials", "Back to School"). Use a list's slug with GET /yahoo-shopping/shopping-list to read its items.
Response notes
- This is a fixed directory of themed lists Yahoo Shopping currently features -- not a general list-creation feature, and the set can change over time.
Sampled 14 Oct 2026: 9 items, 3 fields filled in every item. list: “Most-Valuable-Product-Awards-2026” and 8 other values; image_url: s.yimg.com.
MCP tool yahoo_shopping_shopping_lists
/yahoo-shopping/shopping-listReturns one curated Yahoo Shopping list's items: product title, direct destination URL, image, seller, currency, price, and sale price for each item. Sourced from the list page's own product cards. Use GET /yahoo-shopping/shopping-lists to find a list's slug.
Response notes
- `url` is the real, direct destination product URL (e.g. a brand's own site or `www.amazon.com/dp/...`), decoded server-side from Yahoo's own affiliate-tracking redirect -- not the tracking link itself. - `price` is the item's regular price and `sale_price` is the current price; they are equal when an item isn't discounted. - `currency` is always `"USD"` -- not present as an explicit field on this page's product cards, but every item observed is a US-market listing. - An unrecognized `list` slug returns `404`.
Sampled 14 Oct 2026: 20 items, 7 fields filled in every item. price: 19 to 250, median 60; title: “Dreo TurboPoly Fan 765S” and 19 other values.

How to scrape Yahoo Shopping
Yahoo Shopping has no public developer API, but shopping.yahoo.com's own pages are credential-free public JSON-backed HTML. Note this is Yahoo's shopping buying-guide/deals editorial site, not a keyword product-search API — Yahoo has restructured the site away from a searchable product catalog. Crawlora's 7 Yahoo Shopping endpoints return the homepage and section story feeds, full article content, per-retailer store deal offers, and curated shopping-list items as normalized JSON.
The homepage endpoint returns Yahoo Shopping's editorial story feed; the category endpoint returns a section's feed (beauty, deals, general, gift-ideas, home-garden, or style) with page-based pagination — each story includes its title, destination URL, category, and thumbnail image.
The home feed returned 42 items on 2026-10-30. Opening the first (a celebrity hair-care launch) returned title, description, author, published_at and updated_at both 2026-10-28T19:52:45Z, section Hair, provider Yahoo Life and 6 paragraphs, so the original publisher is the provider field, not Yahoo Shopping.
List featured retailers with /yahoo-shopping/stores, then pass a retailer slug (e.g. target, best-buy) to /yahoo-shopping/store for its current fixed set of deal offers — title, direct retailer product URL, price, and sale price.
List featured themed lists with /yahoo-shopping/shopping-lists, then pass a list slug (e.g. cooling-essentials) to /yahoo-shopping/shopping-list for its current items — title, direct destination URL, seller, price, and sale price.

No. Yahoo has restructured shopping.yahoo.com away from a searchable product catalog into a buying-guide and deals editorial content site. The store and shopping-list endpoints return a fixed set of currently-featured deals, not a keyword search over all products.
beauty, deals, general, gift-ideas, home-garden, and style — the category endpoint's category parameter accepts exactly those six values.
Pass the article's URL (returned by the home or category endpoints as each story's url field) to /yahoo-shopping/article.
Call /yahoo-shopping/stores for the retailer directory (slug, name, logo), then pass a slug to /yahoo-shopping/store for that retailer's current deal offers with direct product URLs, prices, and sale prices.
Call /yahoo-shopping/shopping-lists for the list directory (slug, title, image), then pass a slug to /yahoo-shopping/shopping-list for that list's current items with direct destination URLs, prices, and sale prices.
