# /biccamera/stores/search

`POST /api/biccamera/stores/search`

Price: 5 credits

List the Bic Camera (ビックカメラ) physical stores with store code, name, region, prefecture, postal code, street address and storefront photo.

## How to use it

List Bic Camera stores in Japan. Each entry has id (the store code, e.g. 'shop007', usable with the stores endpoint; null for the group shops published on their own site, which the stores endpoint cannot open), url, name, region, prefecture, postal_code, address, image and notice (a temporary opening announcement when the store has one). Pass prefecture or region to keep one area only.

## Parameters

- `access-token` (string, required)

## Request body

- `timeout` (integer) — Max scrapping execution timeout (in seconds) (default: 300; min: 20; max: 1500)
- `count` (integer, required) — Max number of stores to return (min: 1)
- `prefecture` (string, nullable) — Keep only stores in this prefecture (one of: "北海道", "青森県", "岩手県", "宮城県", "秋田県", "山形県", "福島県", "茨城県", "栃木県", "群馬県", "埼玉県", "千葉県", "東京都", "神奈川県", "新潟県", "富山県", "石川県", "福井県", "山梨県", "長野県", "岐阜県", "静岡県", "愛知県", "三重県", "滋賀県", "京都府", "大阪府", "兵庫県", "奈良県", "和歌山県", "鳥取県", "島根県", "岡山県", "広島県", "山口県", "徳島県", "香川県", "愛媛県", "高知県", "福岡県", "佐賀県", "長崎県", "熊本県", "大分県", "宮崎県", "鹿児島県", "沖縄県")
- `region` (string, nullable) — Keep only stores in this region, spelled as the region field of a store

## Errors

### 422 — Validation Error

The request body did not validate

What to do: Check the fields against this schema. A URN with the wrong prefix is the most common cause.

- `detail` (array)
  - `loc` (array, required)
  - `msg` (string, required)
  - `type` (string, required)
  - `input` (any)
  - `ctx` (object)

### 408

The request ran past its time limit

What to do: Raise `timeout` in the request body, up to the maximum this endpoint documents. Lowering `count` or turning off the `with_*` flags also helps, because less work finishes sooner.

### 412

The entity was not found, or a precondition failed

What to do: Retrying will not help: either the entity does not exist, or the input points at a different one.

### 429

Too many requests: a rate limit or a usage window is exhausted

What to do: When the response carries an X-Retry-After header, wait that many seconds and retry: the same number is in the body as `detail.retry_after`, and the limit clears once that window passes. The message in the body names the limit that was hit.

### 500

Something broke on our side

What to do: Retrying will not help. If it keeps happening, send us the X-Request-ID from the response headers.

### 529

Rate limit reached, or the endpoint is overloaded

What to do: Wait at least 30 seconds, then retry.

## Response envelope

Success: Array of objects (may be empty if no results)

Error: Error may coexist with partial results if it occurs mid-execution. Check X-Error header and status code.

Every response carries these headers:

- `X-Error` — Error message text (present only on error)
- `X-Request-ID` — Unique request identifier
- `X-Execution-Time` — Execution time in seconds
- `X-Result-Count` — How many records the body carries. 0 means an empty result, which is a normal answer and not by itself an error. A non-zero count can come back together with X-Error when the failure happened partway through — read this header and X-Error independently.
- `X-Total-Available-Results` — How many records exist for this query, when the endpoint can say. On a `dry_run` request this is the answer and the body is empty. It saturates: the endpoint's documented maximum means 'at least that many', any smaller number is exact.
- `X-Warning` — Present when the request body carried keys this endpoint does not document. They were ignored, so any filter you meant to apply through them did not apply. Check the spelling against this schema and retry.
- `X-Retry-After` — Seconds to wait before retrying. Present only on 429.
