    Updated 23 July 2025 |

    The Indian eCommerce industry is thriving, with Flipkart leading the way. For software developers in the eCommerce sector, integrating Flipkart into their systems can significantly enhance their offerings. This article explains how to leverage the Flipkart Price API, a powerful tool that enables automatic synchronization and management of product prices. In the following sections, we’ll dive into how to connect your software with Flipkart and maximize its potential.

    This guide provides clear steps to use the Flipkart Price API, from authentication to real-time price updates, helping your clients stay competitive in a dynamic pricing environment.

    What is Flipkart Price API?

    Flipkart Price API is a set of web services that allows developers to manage the prices of products listed on Flipkart’s platform. As part of the broader Flipkart API suite, it enables seamless integration with third-party applications, allowing businesses to modify and retrieve prices quickly and efficiently.

    In addition to the pricing functionality, Flipkart API offers various features for product listing, order management, and seller management. These capabilities help streamline business operations and integrate Flipkart with different software platforms. You can explore more about Flipkart's API services here.

    How To Work with Flipkart Prices via Its API?

    Here’s how to work with prices using the Flipkart API:

    • API Functionality: The UpdateListingsPriceAPI allows developers to update product prices on Flipkart. It enables adjustments to both Maximum Retail Price (MRP) and the seller’s Selling Price for products identified by unique Stock Keeping Units (SKU) in the seller's account.
    • Authorization: Accessing and modifying a seller’s account requires authorization. Developers must obtain Flipkart API credentials to use the API.
    • Use Cases for Developers: Software developers can incorporate this API into applications designed for Flipkart sellers. Some examples include:
    • - Inventory Management Systems: These systems can use the API to update prices automatically based on predefined stock levels or rules.
    • - Pricing Automation Tools: These tools can adjust prices in real time, considering competitor prices or market trends.

    Note that the API only manages prices for a seller’s own products and does not provide access to general Flipkart pricing data.
