Overview

What you can get

The CHINTAI API returns CHINTAI rental data for Japan as JSON through 6 endpoints.

Search: search takes a prefecture (all 47, romanised as the site spells them, such as tokyo, osaka, sizuoka or ooita), with city, line, type (mansion, apart or kodate), min_rent and max_rent (fixed steps from 30000 to 1000000 yen), min_area and max_area (10 to 200 m²), layouts, walk_minutes (1, 3, 5, 7, 10, 15 or 20), max_age_years (0 to 30), sort (rent_asc, rent_desc or area_desc) and page.
Listings: listing takes an id.
Agencies: agency takes an id; agency-listings takes an id, with sort (rent_asc, rent_desc or area_desc) and page.
Locations: locations takes a level (prefectures, cities or lines); autocomplete takes q.

The recorded search (prefecture=tokyo, city=13104, max_rent=150000, layouts=1K,1LDK, sort=rent_asc) for Shinjuku returns items, each with id, url, building, layout, area_m2, floor_number, rent_yen, management_fee_yen, total_monthly_yen, deposit_yen, key_money_yen, chips, photo_count, floor_plan_image, nearest_station, agency, updated_at and publish_end. Each building carries its type, address, built_year, age_years, structure and access. It also returns pagination with total_pages and has_more.

How a call works

Search 1K and 1LDK rentals in Shinjuku: GET /v1/chintai/search?prefecture=tokyo&city=13104&max_rent=150000&layouts=1K,1LDK&sort=rent_asc with your key in the X-API-Key header. Find city and line codes with locations. Each item's id goes to listing, and its agency.id goes to agency and agency-listings. Every successful call costs 1 credit; failed calls cost nothing.

FAQ

Questions

Do I need a CHINTAI account?

No. You call this CHINTAI API with your Perceptlayer key in the `X-API-Key` header, with no CHINTAI login.

How much does the CHINTAI API cost?

Each successful call costs one credit. New accounts get free credits to start, and credit packs bring the price down as you scale.

What format are responses in?

Every endpoint returns JSON, with no HTML parsing on your side.

Does it cover homes for sale?

No. These endpoints cover rentals: `search` filters by `min_rent` and `max_rent`, and each item carries `rent_yen` and `total_monthly_yen`.

Should I build a CHINTAI scraper instead?

You can, but a CHINTAI scraper is code you maintain: page changes break it, requests get blocked, and CHINTAI's terms govern how you collect data. The CHINTAI API gives you 6 endpoints of named JSON fields for 1 credit per successful call, and failed calls cost nothing. A scraper makes sense only for data these endpoints don't return, so check the response in the playground on this page first.
