# Depop User Search API Documentation

<p><strong>Depop User Search API Documentation</strong> Search sellers by username. The search is fuzzy, so every row has is_exact_match to show a row that equals your query. Use the id in the shop endpoints. The data is public Depop data and the endpoint is read only. A failed request is never billed.</p>

- **API group:** Depop API
- **Endpoint:** `GET https://scrappa.co/api/depop/users/search`
