What the Countdown API connector can do
Countdown API, built by Traject Data, returns live eBay product listings, reviews, seller feedback, and historical sales figures through a REST interface. In a type.com Space, a sourcing or market research team can ask the agent to start a batch of eBay lookups, check on a running collection, or review results together in the same thread.

FAQ
Questions people ask before connecting Countdown API
Can Claude pull eBay data through Countdown API?
Yes. Once a Countdown API connection is shared with a type.com Space, you can ask Claude to build a collection of product, review, or seller feedback requests and report back in the thread.
How do I authenticate Countdown API in type.com?
Countdown API uses an API key. An admin adds it once when the connection is created, then chooses which Spaces can use it.
Can Countdown API pulls run on a schedule?
Yes. You can turn a Countdown API collection request into a type.com automation, so the agent kicks off a new batch of eBay lookups on a recurring schedule and posts the results.
Is this the same as an MCP server for Countdown API?
Not exactly. type.com uses connectors and connections to give selected Spaces access to approved app tools and data. Some connectors use hosted MCP, while others use OAuth, API keys, service accounts, or custom APIs.
