import requests

# API endpoint URL

payload = {

# Send the POST request
response = requests.post(url, json=payload)

# Check the response status code
if response.status_code == 200:
    # Successful response
    data = response.json()
    status = data.get("status")

    if status == "success":
        suggestions = data.get("response")[0]
        sources = data.get("sources")
        print("Suggestions:", suggestions)
        print("Sources:", sources)
    else:
        print("Error: Something went wrong")
else:
    # Error response
    error_message = response.json().get("error")
    print("Error:", error_message)

API-response

The response of the API can look like this:

{
    "response": [
        [
            "B01MRRPPQS",
            "B07Q11QQCM",
            "B01MZZJ1P0"
        ],
        1151
    ],
    "sources": [
        "google",
        "generated"
    ],
    "status": "success"
}

The response contains the suggestions in response. Here you can also find the number of similar asins we managed to find, in the example this is '1151'. Furthermore, we list the sources used in sources.
