Power Your AI Sourcing Agent With 1688 Data

Yes, with suitable suppliers and fulfillment arrangements. Confirm that the supplier accepts your order quantity and that delivery to your customer is arranged. Check product options, total costs, and how damaged or incorrect items are handled. Test the process with a sample order.

Connect and authorize a compatible AI agent, then ask it to use Nexscope data to research products. Keyword searches require Simplified Chinese keywords; image searches require a publicly accessible image URL. Your agent can compare available prices, minimum orders, and supplier details. Data availability and freshness may vary, so confirm final prices and stock with the supplier. Page examples are illustrative; use the linked API documentation to run a query.

Yes. Provide a publicly accessible image URL to Nexscope’s 1688 image search API to find visually similar products. Whether an uploaded photo can be converted to a usable URL depends on your AI client. Similar appearance does not guarantee the same materials, dimensions, manufacturer, or quality. Review product details and request a sample before choosing a supplier.

Check the minimum order quantity for each listing and product option. Do not assume a bulk price applies to a one-unit order. Ask the supplier to confirm whether they accept your required quantity and what price applies before placing an order.

Compare product specifications, prices at your order quantity, available supplier information, and delivery arrangements. Ask each supplier the same questions about stock, packaging, dispatch times, and returns. Use samples and direct communication to assess whether they meet your needs; a low price alone is not proof of reliability.

Not necessarily. A supplier may ship only within China. Ask who will send the parcel to your customer, what it costs, and who handles lost or delayed deliveries.

That depends on which tasks your supplier can handle and which you can manage yourself. If you need help with purchasing, inspecting products, consolidating parcels, or international delivery, arrange those services separately. An AI agent connected to Nexscope helps with research; it does not physically handle your orders.

Include the product, shipping within China, inspection and packing, international delivery, applicable import costs, payment and currency conversion, store fees, returns, and customer acquisition. Confirm these costs with your suppliers and service providers before ordering.

These 1688 APIs provide product and supplier data for research and comparison. The data does not constitute independent supplier verification, and these APIs do not place orders or arrange shipping for you. Your AI agent helps organize the available information; confirm final transaction terms directly with the supplier.

Yes. Use an MCP-compatible AI client and connect to Nexscope with OAuth authorization or a supported API key configuration before running a task. Copying the task alone does not establish the connection. Follow the connection guide above to get started. Developers can also call the REST APIs with a Nexscope API key.
