GET
Gumtree Categories
Browse one level of the Gumtree UK category tree. Omit category_id for the root, or supply a positive numeric category ID. Child flags are source-reported hints; false does not guarantee the category has no descendants. One uncached successful request costs 1 SocialQuery credits. Cache hits and failed requests cost zero. Initial provider verification shares a fixed 200-credit allowance; an exhausted allowance prevents further upstream calls. Unknown values remain null.
