# /eprel/products/search

`POST /api/eprel/products/search`

Price: 20 credits

Search one EPREL product group, the EU register every product carrying an EU energy label must be entered into. Narrows by energy class, supplier or trademark, model identifier, commercial name and GTIN, and by the technical fields the group's own regulation defines — compartment volumes and dimensions for refrigerators, tyre size, load index and wet-grip class for tyres, panel technology and resolution for displays — passed as filters under the registry's own field names. Orders by energy class, supplier, model identifier, registration number or the on-market and publication dates. Returns the same full model record as the single-product lookup.

## How to use it

One `product_group` per call — the registry has no cross-group search, and the same appliance often appears under two groups because a newer regulation replaced an older one (refrigeratingappliances2019 supersedes refrigeratingappliances, lightsources supersedes lamps); the repealed group still holds its own models, so cover both when completeness matters. Call eprel/product_groups first to see which `filters` keys and energy-class letters a group publishes: a key from the wrong group is rejected rather than ignored, which is deliberate, because the registry itself would silently return the unfiltered set. Withdrawn and superseded registrations are excluded unless `include_old_products` is set, which typically adds a tenth to the matches. A single call reaches at most 10000 models however many match, so to cover one of the larger groups split it by supplier, energy class or a numeric range rather than raising `count`.

## Parameters

- `access-token` (string, required)

## Request body

- `timeout` (integer) — Max scrapping execution timeout (in seconds) (default: 300; min: 20; max: 1500)
- `product_group` (string, required) — Product group to search. Each group is a separate register under its own EU regulation, and a search never spans more than one. Groups whose regulation was repealed are still queryable and hold the models registered under it (one of: "airconditioners", "dishwashers", "dishwashers2019", "electronicdisplays", "hotwaterstoragetanks", "lamps", "lightsources", "localspaceheaters", "ovens", "professionalrefrigeratedstoragecabinets", "rangehoods", "refrigeratingappliances", "refrigeratingappliances2019", "refrigeratingappliancesdirectsalesfunction", "residentialventilationunits", "smartphonestablets20231669", "solidfuelboilerpackages", "solidfuelboilers", "spaceheaterpackages", "spaceheaters", "spaceheatersolardevice", "spaceheatertemperaturecontrol", "televisions", "tumbledriers", "tumbledryers20232534", "tyres", "washerdriers", "washerdriers2019", "washingmachines", "washingmachines2019", "waterheaterpackages", "waterheaters", "waterheatersolardevices"; examples: "refrigeratingappliances2019", "lightsources", "tyres")
- `energy_class` (array, nullable) — Energy classes to keep. The letters differ by group and are listed per group by eprel/product_groups; older regulations add AP, APP and APPP above A. Groups whose regulation grades more than one thing publish named class filters instead, such as energyClassWash and energyClassWashAndDry on washer-dryers, which go in filters (examples: ["A","B"], ["APPP"])
- `supplier` (string, nullable) — Supplier or trademark name (examples: "Liebherr", "LG Electronics"; minLength: 1)
- `model_identifier` (string, nullable) — Supplier's model identifier (examples: "GBB567PZCZB"; minLength: 1)
- `commercial_name` (string, nullable) — Commercial name the model is marketed under (examples: "DC-100"; minLength: 1)
- `gtin` (string, nullable) — GTIN barcode of the model (examples: "8690842762512"; minLength: 1)
- `include_old_products` (boolean) — Include models whose registration is withdrawn or superseded. Off by default, matching what the public registry search shows (default: false)
- `filters` (object, nullable) — Group-specific filters, keyed by the registry's own field name. Every group publishes a different set; eprel/product_groups lists the accepted keys, their form and their range for one group. Numeric fields take a Min and a Max key, booleans take true or false, and a key the chosen group does not publish is rejected (examples: {"capFreezeNetMax":"120","capFreezeNetMin":"100"}, {"applianceType":"WINE_STORAGE"})
  - `*` (string)
- `sort` (string, nullable) — Field to order by. Unset leaves the registry's own order (one of: "energyClass", "modelIdentifier", "supplierOrTrademark", "onMarketStartDateTS", "publishedOnDateTS", "eprelRegistrationNumber")
- `order` (string) — Direction for sort (default: "DESC"; one of: "ASC", "DESC")
- `count` (integer, required) — Max number of results to return (min: 1; max: 10000)

## Errors

### 422 — Validation Error

A filter key or energy-class letter the chosen product_group does not publish. eprel/product_groups lists what it accepts.

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

Nothing in that product group matched the filters.

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.
