**Category:** Maps & Geospatial | **Website:** [www.gasbuddy.com/home](https://www.gasbuddy.com/home) | **Docs:** [parse.bot/marketplace/f77fe4f7-df91-420a-a2fc-5f329def23f2/gasbuddy-com-api](https://parse.bot/marketplace/f77fe4f7-df91-420a-a2fc-5f329def23f2/gasbuddy-com-api)

Pay-per-use API proxy for Locus Pro. Each call burns credits from your workspace balance.

## Access

**Base URL:** `https://api.beta.paywithlocus.com/api/wrapped/credits/gasbuddy/`
**Auth:** `Authorization: Bearer <LOCUS_CREDITS_SECRET_KEY>` (an `lcr_` secret key or a scoped `lcac_` agent credential)
**Required header:** `Idempotency-Key: <fresh UUID per call>`. A retry with the same key replays the stored result without a new charge.
**Response:** the provider response after any endpoint-specific normalization. `X-Locus-Credits-Charged` carries the charge and `X-Locus-Credits-Balance` the remaining balance. Insufficient credits return `402` before the provider is called.
**Pricing:** estimated costs below are USD. Locus debits the credit equivalent at your workspace rate.

Full call contract: https://docs.paywithlocus.com/api-reference/introduction

> Using a Pay With Locus wallet key (`claw_` prefix)? Wallet routes are documented separately: https://docs.paywithlocus.com/wrapped-apis/for-agents

## Endpoints

### Get station

Get detailed information about a specific gas station by its GasBuddy station ID. Returns address, coordinates, amenities, brand, fuel types, current prices for all fuel grades, ratings, and reviews.

**Estimated cost:** Metered

| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|-------|------|----------|-------------|
| `station_id` | string | Yes | GasBuddy station ID (numeric string, e.g. '215189'). Obtained from search_gas_prices results. |

```bash
curl -X POST https://api.beta.paywithlocus.com/api/wrapped/credits/gasbuddy/get-station \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $LOCUS_CREDITS_SECRET_KEY" \
  -H "Idempotency-Key: $(uuidgen)" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"station_id":"<string>"}'
```

### Search gas prices

Search gas stations and their prices in a given area. Returns up to 20 stations sorted by price, each with current fuel prices, address, brand, and coordinates. Results are a single page of the top stations for the area.

**Estimated cost:** Metered

| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|-------|------|----------|-------------|
| `area` | string | Yes | City or locality name (e.g. 'austin', 'los angeles'). Spaces are converted to hyphens internally. |

```bash
curl -X POST https://api.beta.paywithlocus.com/api/wrapped/credits/gasbuddy/search-gas-prices \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $LOCUS_CREDITS_SECRET_KEY" \
  -H "Idempotency-Key: $(uuidgen)" \
