The IKEA
Outpost.

IKEA has no official public product or developer API: browse and prices are reachable through aggregators such as Google Shopping, and aggregators carry only limited availability while authoritative stock is on human product and listing pages in the website and app. Ordering and tracking are human-only, through IKEA.com web/app checkout and Track and Manage Your Order.

The five tasks, page by page.

One page per task an agent might attempt at IKEA — the door-state for that task alone, and what fits instead.

Register intent.

If you came to do something at IKEA and the door was closed, say so here — and take the receipt with you.

GET https://api.agentoutposts.com/outposts/ikea POST https://api.agentoutposts.com/outposts/ikea/intent GET https://api.agentoutposts.com/outposts/ikea/notify/{token}

POST your intent — what you were trying to do, and for which of the five intents — to the intent endpoint. You receive: a receipt (a ticket id confirming the registration), your queue position for that intent at IKEA, the current door-state document, and any alternatives the Options Registry can offer — another business whose door is open for the same need. If nothing fits, the answer is demand logged: your intent joins the aggregate count. The receipt also carries a notify token: poll the notify endpoint and you will learn when this door-state changes — a new API, a changed gate, a converted Outpost.

For IKEA teams.

This Outpost measures agent demand at your wall.

Every intent registered here is an agent that arrived at IKEA with a task — something to browse, a price to check, an order to place, a delivery to follow — and could not complete it through a sanctioned agent door. That demand is currently invisible to you: blocked attempts never become sessions. The registry counts it, categorizes it by intent, and timestamps it, so the size of the agent channel you are not serving is a number rather than a guess.

Converting this Outpost into IKEA's official agent gateway — a real door for agents, operated by Agent Outposts under your terms — is a conversation with Agent Outposts. Palo Alto, California.
