## Product search

`POST /v1/products/search`

Search catalog products with filters and auto-pagination. Parameters are passed in the request body — this is more convenient for compound filters built from several conditions and for programmatic request assembly. For lists of up to 5000 records, [`GET /v1/products`](/docs/entities/products/list) with a filter in query parameters also works.

## Request fields (body)

| Parameter | Type | Default | Description |
|----------|-----|-----------|---------|
| `filter` | object | — | Exact match and `$in` (IN set) only, on the fields `id`, `name`, `code`, `xmlId`, `active`, `sectionId`, `sort`. Operators (`>`, `>=`, `<`, `<=`, `!`, `%`, `$ne`, `$contains`, `$nin`) and filtering by other fields (`price`, `currency`) are not supported — `400 UNSUPPORTED_FILTER` is returned.<br>[Filtering syntax](/docs/filtering). Example: `{ "sectionId": 19, "active": true }` |
| `limit` | number | `50` | Number of records (up to 5000) |
| `offset` | number | `0` | Skip N records |
| `order` | object | — | Sorting by the fields `id`, `name`, `sort`: `{ "sort": "desc" }`. The fields `price` and `currency` do not support sorting |
| `select` | string[] | — | Field selection: `["id", "name", "price"]` |

### curl — personal key

```bash
curl -X POST "https://vibecode.bitrix24.com/v1/products/search" \
  -H "X-Api-Key: YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \

    "filter": { "active": true },
    "limit": 20,
    "order": { "sort": "desc" }

```

### curl — OAuth application

```bash
curl -X POST "https://vibecode.bitrix24.com/v1/products/search" \
  -H "X-Api-Key: YOUR_APP_KEY" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer USER_SESSION_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "filter": { "active": true },
    "limit": 20,
    "order": { "sort": "desc" }
  }'
```

### JavaScript — personal key

```javascript
const res = await fetch('https://vibecode.bitrix24.com/v1/products/search', {
  method: 'POST',
  headers: {
    'X-Api-Key': 'YOUR_API_KEY',
    'Content-Type': 'application/json',
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    filter: { active: true },
    limit: 20,
    order: { sort: 'desc' },
  }),
})

const { success, data, meta } = await res.json()
console.log('Found:', meta.total)
```

```javascript
const res = await fetch('https://vibecode.bitrix24.com/v1/products/search', {
  method: 'POST',
  headers: {
    'X-Api-Key': 'YOUR_APP_KEY',
    'Authorization': 'Bearer USER_SESSION_TOKEN',
    'Content-Type': 'application/json',
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    filter: { active: true },
    limit: 20,
    order: { sort: 'desc' },
  }),
})

const { success, data, meta } = await res.json()
```

### Other scenarios

Products of a single catalog section:

```json
{ "filter": { "sectionId": 19 } }
```

Several products by identifiers via `$in`:

```json
{ "filter": { "id": { "$in": [6967, 533] } } }
```

## Response fields

| Field | Type | Description |
|------|-----|---------|
| `success` | boolean | Always `true` on success |
| `data` | array | Array of products (all fields — see [Product fields](/docs/entities/products/fields)) |
| `meta.total` | number | Total number of products matching the filter |
| `meta.hasMore` | boolean | Whether there are more records beyond `limit` |
| `meta.durationMs` | number | Request duration in milliseconds |

The `meta` fields sit next to `data`, not inside it. Pages must be walked by `meta.hasMore`: a `data` length equal to `limit` does not rule out the last page.

The card URL of any product from the `data` array is built from `catalogId` and `id`: `https://<portal>.bitrix24.com/shop/catalog/<catalogId>/product/<id>/`. `<portal>` is the account domain. Access is restricted by the employee's permissions in Bitrix24.

## Response example

```json
{
  "success": true,
  "data": [
    {
      "id": 6967,
      "name": "Master product",
      "code": "product_sku",
      "active": true,
      "sort": 100,
      "xmlId": "6967",
      "catalogId": 25,
      "sectionId": null,
      "price": 100,
      "currency": "USD",
      "vatId": null,
      "vatIncluded": false,
      "createdAt": "2025-05-12T09:03:15.000Z",
      "updatedAt": "2025-05-12T09:05:27.000Z"
    },
    {
      "id": 6969,
      "name": "Service",
      "code": "service",
      "active": true,
      "catalogId": 25,
      "price": 250,
      "currency": "USD",
      "vatId": 1,
      "vatIncluded": true,
      "createdAt": "2025-05-12T09:04:01.000Z",
      "updatedAt": "2025-05-12T09:04:01.000Z"
    }
  ],
  "meta": { "total": 19, "hasMore": true, "durationMs": 2509 }
}
```

## Error response example

400 — an operator or unsupported field in the filter:

```json
{
  "success": false,
  "error": {
    "code": "UNSUPPORTED_FILTER",
    "message": "UNSUPPORTED_FILTER: operators are not supported on 'products' (near 'price'). Its Bitrix24 method (crm.product.list) filters by exact match only — operators are silently ignored by Bitrix24. Use exact match (field: value) or $in (field: {$in: [...]}) on: id, name, code, xmlId, active, sectionId, sort."
  }
}
```

## Errors

| HTTP | Code | Description |
|------|-----|---------|
| 400 | `UNSUPPORTED_FILTER` | An operator or unsupported field in the filter. Filter by exact match or `$in` on `id`, `name`, `code`, `xmlId`, `active`, `sectionId`, `sort` |
| 400 | `INVALID_FILTER` | Error while parsing the filter |
| 403 | `SCOPE_DENIED` | The API key lacks the `crm` scope |
| 401 | `MISSING_API_KEY` | The `X-Api-Key` header was not passed |

## Known specifics

**Auto-pagination.** When `limit > 50`, the request is automatically split into several calls to Bitrix24, up to 5000 records per call. When more records match the filter, `meta.hasMore` equals `true` — increase `offset` for the next batch.

**Catalog properties are not included in the response.** The `data` array contains the standard product fields. To get the values of the `PROPERTY_<N>` properties, request the product by identifier via [`GET /v1/products/:id`](/docs/entities/products/get).
