API overview
The REST API exposes the same component intelligence as the web app—ideal for internal portals, quoting, and automation.
Zenode’s Developer API lets you embed AI-assisted search, alternate discovery, live pricing & availability, and batch-style analysis into scripts and services.
Typical use cases
- Internal part portals — Search and filter with the same graph as zenode.ai
- BOM tooling — Match lines to catalog records and refresh price/availability
- Alternate evaluation — Score candidates from your ERP against a prime MPN
Auth and shape
- Requests use HTTPS with a Bearer token (
Authorization: Bearer sk_...). - Payloads are JSON; responses return structured part rows and metadata suitable for downstream ETL.
POST https://api.zenode.ai/v1/search
Authorization: Bearer sk_...
Content-Type: application/json
{
"query": "low-noise LDO 3.3V",

Full OpenAPI reference and endpoint list will ship as the public API stabilizes. Starter+ plans include API access per pricing.
