Business special requests

Business list and detail operations use params both for sparse fields and for operation-specific relation or computed-field expansions. These expansions are not a universal Business schema: use only the values supported by the exact operation and operation version.

Common expansions

Available expansions include:

params value	Context returned when supported
menus	Menus and, depending on the operation and mode, their category/product tree.
city	The related city; the response also includes city_id.
reviews	Review aggregates and related review data.
gallery	Business gallery items.
offers	Offers visible under the current mode, project features, and caller.
categories, products, products_featured	Catalog relations. Use the products_featured token; featured_products is not supported.
zones	Delivery-zone and delivery calculation context.
webhooks	Business webhooks on operations that permit this relation. The current token is plural.
paymethods	Business payment methods. Sensitive credential fields may be omitted from the response.
available_drivers_count	Availability counts calculated for the selected business/search context.

Additional expansions may include owners, agents, types, configs, taxes, and third_party_integrations. Their availability and visibility depend on list or detail version, mode, caller, and project features; do not assume they are available on every response.

Search context

Public business discovery can combine an order type, a location or dropdown selection, and params=zones. For example:

GET https://api.ordering.co/v400/en/YOUR_PROJECT/business?type=1&location=40.7539143,-73.9810162&params=zones,name,slug

{
  "error": false,
  "result": [
    {
      "id": 22,
      "name": "Example business",
      "timezone": "America/New_York",
      "open": false,
      "distance": 0,
      "delivery_zone": 15,
      "minimum": 1,
      "delivery_price": 2
    }
  ]
}

This is an illustrative shape, not a complete response schema. Location, order type, dropdown, schedule, site, and project settings can affect eligibility and calculated fields.

Dashboard mode

mode=dashboard exposes administrative shapes and is access-controlled. List and detail paths may use different role checks: do not infer access to one from access to the other. The published API reference contract remains authoritative.
