Kijiji Listing Detail API returns one public Kijiji (Canada) ad by its numeric id: title, full description, public url, category id, images (640 px), publish, update and end date (ISO 8601, UTC), location with address and coordinates, price in CAD (plus original_amount when the price was reduced), attributes with display names and values (for cars: make, model, mileage and more), view count, status, ad type, seller type (for example FSBO or COMMERCIAL) and a verified-seller flag. Seller phone, website and account ids are never returned. The description is the seller's free text and may contain contact details the seller typed. An ad that is removed or unknown returns a non-billable 404.
