# How do I research products to sell on Xiaohongshu: what sells and what buyers say? (2026) 1 category word comes to about $0.14: xiaohongshu.shop.products.search gives products with price and units sold, xiaohongshu.shop.products.reviews.list gives what buyers said of the first 5, and xiaohongshu.notes.search shows the notes around that word. All at $0.0200 a call. DataXAPI reads Xiaohongshu (RedNote) with 21 endpoints, from $0.0200 a call; a failed call is not charged. Updated 2026-11-04 ## What to take for one word Try it with 帽子 (hats) or 围巾 (scarves). In one go: `dataxapi run products platform=xiaohongshu query=帽子 products=5 --out hats.csv` writes the reviews of the first 5 products, with each one's name and price, for $0.12. | Endpoint | What it gives | A page | | --- | --- | --- | | `xiaohongshu.shop.products.search` | Title, current and original price in yuan, units sold (`metrics.sold`), a picture, the shop | About 20 | | `xiaohongshu.shop.products.reviews.list` | Text, rating, variant bought, pictures; takes the product's `id` | About 12, the first page only | | `xiaohongshu.notes.search` | Notes on the word: title, text, likes, saves, comments, shares | About 20 | ## One way to read the table This is our suggestion, not a rule. Ask your AI to lay out each word on these lines: “For these words, list units sold, price range, how much the notes are saved, and what the reviews complain about most often.” | You see | It may mean | | --- | --- | | High units sold and many saved notes | Demand is proven, and so the competition is real: look for the gap in the reviews | | Notes saved a lot, few products selling | People are interested and have not found what to buy | | The same complaint across several products | A point for your version to fix | ## What it comes to, and what to know One word: 1 product search, 5 reviews and 1 note search are 7 calls: $0.14. 10 words: $1.40. 2 pages of products add $0.02 a word. Units sold is what the result card shows at that moment, not sales over a period: read again a week later and subtract for a rough figure of the week's sales. Results have no link to the product and no overall rating or review count. Only Xiaohongshu's own shop is covered here, not goods sold through links elsewhere. DataXAPI reads public data only. ## Endpoints - [Xiaohongshu product search](https://dataxapi.com/apis/xiaohongshu/shop/products/search/) ($0.0200 / a call): Search the products of Xiaohongshu's shop by terms: title, current and original price in yuan, units sold, picture, shop. - [Xiaohongshu product reviews](https://dataxapi.com/apis/xiaohongshu/shop/products/reviews/list/) ($0.0200 / a call): Get the first page of buyers' reviews of a product of Xiaohongshu's shop by the product's ID: text, rating, variant bought, pictures, likes. - [Xiaohongshu note search](https://dataxapi.com/apis/xiaohongshu/notes/search/) ($0.0200 / a call): Search Xiaohongshu notes by terms: title, text, author, engagement counts, images, and a link that opens. ## How-to guides - [How to search and export Xiaohongshu (RedNote) notes by keyword](https://dataxapi.com/guides/xiaohongshu-search-export-notes/) ## More about Xiaohongshu (RedNote) - [Xiaohongshu (RedNote) API](https://dataxapi.com/apis/xiaohongshu/) - [Xiaohongshu Shop API](https://dataxapi.com/apis/xiaohongshu/shop/) - [How do I export Xiaohongshu (RedNote) data?](https://dataxapi.com/answers/export-xiaohongshu-data/) - [Can ChatGPT read Xiaohongshu (RedNote)?](https://dataxapi.com/answers/can-chatgpt-read-xiaohongshu/) - [What is xsec_token on Xiaohongshu?](https://dataxapi.com/answers/xiaohongshu-xsec-token/) - [What is a Xiaohongshu note ID, and what is an xhslink link?](https://dataxapi.com/answers/xiaohongshu-note-id-and-xhslink/) - [What is CPE on Xiaohongshu PGY and on Douyin Xingtu?](https://dataxapi.com/answers/xiaohongshu-pgy-cpe-vs-xingtu-cpe/) - [What is Xiaohongshu PGY?](https://dataxapi.com/answers/what-is-xiaohongshu-pgy/) - [Which Xiaohongshu data API?
