Flipkart Autocomplete API Documentation Get the search suggestions Flipkart shows while you type. Each suggestion has the text, the type, the category it belongs to (name and store id for the search endpoint) and a small photo. Promotion rows are removed. A query with no suggestion returns an empty list and costs 1 credit. Cost: 1 credit per request, only for successful requests. Failed requests are not billed.
