# List Wendy's national menu categories

`GET /wendys/categories`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.crawlora.net/api/v1`
- URL: `https://api.crawlora.net/api/v1/wendys/categories`
- Auth: API key in header `x-api-key`

Returns every category on Wendy's national (restaurant-agnostic) menu, grouped by which of Wendy's own top-level day-parts (Lunch/Dinner, Breakfast) it appears under -- a few categories such as Coffee and Beverages appear under both. No restaurant selection is required; this is the same catalog a signed-out visitor sees before ever picking a location. Each category's slug is what GET /wendys/menu takes.
