Metrocuadrado Types API Documentation

GET https://scrappa.co/api/metrocuadrado/types?type=property

Scrappa's GET /api/metrocuadrado/types endpoint returns the source's selector vocabularies. One request reads one vocabulary, so the two are alternatives rather than a chain.

type=property (default) returns the property types to pass as property_type on the search endpoint — numeric codes, comma-joined for several. Note that a plot is the composite code 4,15; the bare code 4 matches the whole inventory and returns nothing, which is why the search endpoint rejects it.

type=deal returns the deal types to pass as business_type: venta and arriendo.

An empty taxonomy returns a non-billable error rather than an empty success.
