## Errors

| Status | Code | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 400 | `INVALID_PARAMS` | A parameter is missing, unknown or out of range. The message names it. |
| 401 | `UNAUTHORIZED` | The `x-api-key` header is missing, or the key is revoked or unknown. |
| 402 | `INSUFFICIENT_BALANCE` | The balance does not cover this call. Top up in the dashboard. |
| 503 | `TOKEN_EXPIRED` | AliExpress is temporarily unavailable. Retry later. |

Every code is listed in [Errors](/docs/errors). Failed calls are not billed.

## Pricing

**Price** $0.001 per call. [List price](https://apinoa.com/en/pricing); the rate steps down above 1,000 calls a day.

## Notes

- **Same filters as `search`, minus the keyword.** A `query` is a 400.
- **An unknown category returns an empty `items`, not a 404.** AliExpress does not distinguish an unknown category from an empty one.
- Category ids come from [Categories](/docs/api-reference/aliexpress/categories).
