# Subscribe to a marketplace API

> Create your own copy of the canonical, pinned to its current release and added to your account (My APIs). Returns a `scraper_id` you call at POST /scraper/{scraper_id}/{endpoint_name}. Pinned, so upstream changes don't alter your contract until you merge updates. Stays sync-eligible.
