Suppliers
GET

Get an overseas supplier profile by slug

1 per record

Return the full profile for an overseas supplier using its URL slug. Resolve names via supplier search first.

Parameters#

Path parameters

  • supplierstringrequired

    ImportYeti supplier URL slug — the hyphenated segment from the website path /supplier/... (e.g. yiwu-yida-import-and-export-co-ltd), not the supplier display or legal name. To resolve a name to a slug, use GET /supplier/search. Slugs use lowercase letters, digits, and hyphens; letter casing in this parameter is normalized. Underscores are accepted in place of hyphens.

Query parameters

  • fieldsstringoptional

    Comma-separated list of fields to keep on each returned record, e.g. bol_number,arrival_date,supplier_name. Everything else is omitted. Names that the record does not carry are ignored. The envelope (requestCost, creditsRemaining, executionTime, totalCount) is always returned in full. Cannot be combined with exclude. Omit for the full record.

  • excludestringoptional

    Comma-separated list of fields to drop from each returned record, e.g. containers,shipping_rate. Every other field is kept. Cannot be combined with fields. Omit for the full record.

  • formatstringoptionaldefault json

    Response encoding. Defaults to json. Pass toon to receive TOON — the same data in a compact, token-efficient text form intended for LLM prompts. Error responses are always JSON.
