### Illustrative sample output

This redacted fixture is an example, not a fixed response schema.

```json
{
  "items": [
    {
      "available": null,
      "brand": "SuperNutrio",
      "gtin": null,

      "price": {
        "amount": 2.6,

### Illustrative output fields

Derived from the sample above for orientation only. These fields are not a fixed response schema.

| Path | Observed type | Example |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `items` | `array` | 1 items |
| `items` | `array` | 1 items |
| `next_offset` | `null` | null |
| `offset` | `integer` | 176 |
| `returned` | `integer` | 1 |
| `total_products` | `integer` | 177 |
| `truncated` | `boolean` | false |

## Execution behavior

A `200` response completed inline. A `202` response was queued; poll `GET /jobs/{id}` until the job reaches `completed` or `failed`. Use an `Idempotency-Key` when retrying must not create a duplicate logical job.
