The recorded `search` for `city_id=1` (Calgary in the response) with `price_max=2500` and `beds[]=2` returns `search_metadata` with `total_results` (2,936), `page_size` (48) and `has_more`, and `listings`, each with `id`, `url`, `title`, `property_type`, `price_min`, `price_max`, `bedrooms_min`, `bedrooms_max`, `bathrooms_min`, `bathrooms_max`, `area_sqft_min`, `area_sqft_max`, `availability`, `lease_term`, `address`, `community`, `city`, `province_code`, `latitude`, `longitude`, `pets`, `utilities_included`, `features`, `images` and `contact`. ## How a call works Search a city: `GET /v1/rentfaster/search?city_id=1&price_max=2500&beds[]=2` with your key in the `X-API-Key` header. Each listing's `id` is what `listing` and `photos` take. Check `has_more` before asking for the next `page`. Every successful call costs 1 credit; failed calls cost nothing.

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. **Can I filter by pets?** Yes. Pass \`pets\_cats\[\]\` and \`pets\_dogs\[\]\` to \`search\`. Each listing returns \`pets\` with \`cats\` and \`dogs\`. **Should I build a RentFaster scraper instead?** You can, but a RentFaster scraper is code you maintain: page changes break it, requests get blocked, and RentFaster's terms govern how you collect data. The RentFaster 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. ## Try the RentFaster API with 100 free credits No credit card.
