Facets Facets are powerful filters that categorize search results based on specific attributes, enabling users to quickly identify and access relevant data points within a large dataset.
How Facets Work When a user performs a search, the API not only retrieves relevant listings but also provides a summary of attributes related to those listings in the form of facets.
Each facet category will display the count of listings corresponding to each attribute, allowing users to gauge the prevalence of specific characteristics within the search results.
Facet Category Description Example Facets YearsFilter listings by year of manufacture 2024 (873515) MakesGroup listings by vehicle make Chevrolet (240343) ModelsCategorize listings by vehicle model Silverado 1500 (72285) TrimsBreak down by specific trims Limited (98611) SeriesDifferentiate listings by vehicle series Limited 4dr SUV 4WD (3.6L 6cyl 8A) (15920) TypesDifferentiate listings by vehicle type SUV (1001980) EngineFacet by engine type 2.0L 4Cyl gasoline (337112) CylindersFilter by the number of cylinders 4 (1107200) TransmissionsDistinguish listings by transmission type Automatic (1889687) DrivetrainFilter by drivetrain AWD (674110) Int ColorOrganize listings by Interior Color options Black (1311956) Ext ColorSort listings by Exterior Colors options White (556523) DoorsFilter by the number of doors 2-Door (237901) FuelClassify listings by type of fuel used Regular Unleaded (1295264) StatesView listings based on the state where the vehicle is located FL (10348) PricesFacet by price ranges $20000-$24000 (219594) MileageCategorize by mileage 0-7000 (1280236) AccidentsIndicate the number of accidents reported 0 (49999)
Using Facets The facets for listings are encapsulated within a dedicated object at the root of each listings.vin request, and are named after
the corresponding field. Each facet is represented as an object, with the field values serving as keys and the count of matching results as values.
For example, the following JSON response includes facets for makes, models, and years:
