Kelkoo / Yahoo shopping web services confusion

I want to build an application using Kelkoo shopping Services, for UK products. I am a little confused as to what documentation applies to the UK API. I have been reading both the below documentation:
http://developer.yahoo.com/shopping/V3/productSearch.html
http://developer.yahoo.com/kelkoo/index.html

Are they different API's? Do they work differently? I started off reading up on the http://developer.yahoo.com/shopping/V3/productSearch.html and started planning my application to use certain refinements for certain products. eg. refine searched by price, brand etc. I then realised that the products I were getting back were for the US. I then started reading up on http://developer.yahoo.com/kelkoo/index.html, which seems very similar to the other, however, I cannot seem to get back any refinements.

  • Hi,

    The V3 APIs you are talking about are the Yahoo! Shopping ones for the US. We do have different APIs for the european market - http://developer.yahoo.com/kelkoo/index.html . You will get from the product search the refinements for the categories with catalogs=false. For the other categories, you will need to use the catalog search.

    Thanks,
    Mathias
