AI-generatedSummary
Searches Shop API categories by sending a JSON filter to the categories search endpoint. Returns matching categories as n8n items, with optional pagination across all result pages.
Inputs
- Request filter — Optional JSON object used as the search request body. Invalid JSON or a non-object value is ignored.
- Get All Pages — Defaults to false. When enabled, requests pages of 100 results and continues while the response indicates more pages or provides a total page count.
- Limit — Defaults to 20 and is used as the page size when Get All Pages is off. Values at or below zero fall back to 20.
- Max Pages — When Get All Pages is enabled, optionally caps the number of pages fetched; unset or non-positive values do not add a cap.
Output shape
A list of n8n items, one per category returned.
The operation sends a POST request to /v1/categories/search. It accepts either an array response, an object with an items array, or a single response object; each result becomes an item's JSON. If the response is not an array or an object with an items array, a truthy response is returned as one item.
