# ExportDocsHub developer API

> Free, unauthenticated, read-only. No API key, no signup, no rate limit
> beyond ordinary fair use. Send a descriptive User-Agent.

## Endpoints

- `GET /api/v1` (`getApiIndex`): List the available endpoints
- `GET /api/v1/hs-codes` (`searchHsCodes`): Look up candidate HS codes for a product
- `GET /api/v1/guidance` (`searchExportGuidance`): Search the export documentation guidance library
- `GET /api/v1/pricing` (`getPricing`): Get current plans and prices

## Machine-readable description

- [OpenAPI 3.1](https://exportdocshub.com/openapi.json), also at /swagger.json, /api/openapi.json, /api/openapi.yaml
- [API index](https://exportdocshub.com/api/v1)
- [API catalog (RFC 9727)](https://exportdocshub.com/.well-known/api-catalog)

## Authentication

None. Every endpoint is public and read-only and serves only material
already published on this site. There is no API for account data yet; email
hello@exportdocshub.com with the use case if you need one.

## Errors

Every 4xx and 5xx response is `application/problem+json` per RFC 9457,
carrying a stable `code` and a `resolution` naming the next step. Branch on
`code`, never on the message text.
