Browse the Repco Catalogue

GuideUpdated 2026-07-10

The Repco catalogue endpoints let you browse a stored catalogue of ~137,000 products — filtering by category, brand, price, and freight flags — without consuming any scrape credits. Unlike the Officeworks catalogue (a live proxy), the Repco catalogue is materialised server-side and refreshed periodically, so browsing is fast and cheap. Prices and freight in the catalogue are a national reference captured in Brisbane; accurate customer-postcode pricing is captured live when you run a collection.

In the dashboard

Open Suppliers → Repco → Catalog from the sidebar.
The category tree loads on the left. Click any category to filter the results to it and its children.
Use the filter bar to narrow by brand, price range, big & bulky, and in stock.
Review the paginated results — product code, title, brand, retail price, member price, reference freight, and stock.
Click Create collection from filter to scrape the filtered set (see Add Repco Parts for the manual flow).

Via the API

There are two read endpoints (browse the tree, list products) plus a one-call endpoint that turns a filter into a running collection.

Slugs are hierarchical

Each node's slug is a full path, e.g. oils-fluids/engine-oil. Roots and children are ordered by descending product_count. Pass a category_slug to the products endpoint to filter to that node and all of its descendants.

Reference vs live pricing

Catalogue prices and freight are captured once against a Brisbane reference location. When you scrape a collection, MCA re-captures the price, freight, and availability live at your chosen customer postcode — so a Repco collection's results reflect that shopper's real delivery cost, not the reference figure.

Create a collection from a filter

Turn the filter you just built into a running collection in a single call — MCA resolves the matching product codes, creates a Repco collection at your postcode, and enqueues it.

Create Collection from Filter

POST

https://multicartapi.com/api/v1/schedules/repco/categories/create_collection/

API Key or Session Token

Parameter	In	Type	Required	Default	Description
`name`	body	string	Required	—	Collection name.
`customer_postcode`	body	string	Required	—	Postcode value or Zipcode row ID. Freight and price are captured live here when the collection runs.
`limit`	body	integer	Optional	5000	Hard cap on the number of products (maximum 5000).
`selected_codes`	body	array	Optional	—	Explicit product codes. When present, overrides the filter and uses exactly these codes (truncated to `limit`).
`category_slug`	body	string	Optional	—	Same filter params as List Products — category, brand, price, big_and_bulky, in_stock. Ignored if `selected_codes` is supplied.

This spends credits

Creating a collection from a filter charges 1 credit per matched product and starts scraping immediately. applied_cap: true means the match set was larger than limit and was truncated — no products are silently dropped. If your balance is too low the call returns code 402 and no collection is created.
