Common Use Cases

1. Item Shop Tracker Website

Display today's full rotation with images, prices, and rarity badges. Filter the response client-side by type (outfits only, emotes only, etc.).

2. Discord Bot — Daily Shop Post

const cron = require("node-cron");

// Run at 00:05 UTC — 5 minutes after shop reset
cron.schedule("5 0 * * *", async () => {
  const res = await fetch("https://prod.api-fortnite.com/api/v1/shop", {
    headers: { "x-api-key": process.env.FORTNITE_API_KEY },
  });
  const shop = await res.json();

  // Structure depends on your shop response — adapt to the actual fields
  const channel = await client.channels.fetch(process.env.SHOP_CHANNEL_ID);
  await channel.send(`**Today's Item Shop is live!**`);
});

3. Rarity Filter

Show only Epic and Legendary items:

const res = await fetch(
  "https://prod.api-fortnite.com/api/v1/shop?rarity=legendary",
  { headers: { "x-api-key": process.env.FORTNITE_API_KEY } }
);
