Description
location
This required container is used to set the physical address and geographical coordinates (optional) of a warehouse or store inventory location. A warehouse inventory location only requires the city, province/state, and country, and does not require a full street address. However, the seller may still supply a full street address for a warehouse location. The physical location/address for an inventory location cannot be modified once set with a createInventoryLocation call. All other details of an inventory location (e.g. phone or operating hours) can be changed with an updateInventoryLocation call.
locationAdditionalInformation
This text field is used by the merchant to provide additional information about an inventory location.

Max length: 256
locationInstructions
This text field is generally used by the merchant to provide special pickup instructions for a store inventory location. Although this field is optional, it is recommended that merchants provide this field to create a pleasant and easy pickup experience for In-Store Pickup and Click and Collect orders. If this field is not included in the call request payload, eBay will use the default pickup instructions contained in the merchant's profile (if available).
locationTypes
array of StoreTypeEnum
This container is used to define the function of the inventory location. Typically, an inventory location will serve as a store or a warehouse, but in some cases, an inventory location may be both.

For In-Store Pickup inventory, set StoreTypeEnum to STORE.

If this container is omitted, the location type of the inventory location will default to WAREHOUSE. See StoreTypeEnum for the supported values.

Default: WAREHOUSE
locationWebUrl
This text field is used by the merchant to provide the Website address (URL) associated with the inventory location.

Max length: 512
merchantLocationStatus
This field is used to indicate whether the inventory location will be enabled (inventory can be loaded to location) or disabled (inventory can not be loaded to location). If this field is omitted, a successful createInventoryLocation call will automatically enable the inventory location. A merchant may want to create a new inventory location but leave it as disabled if the inventory location is not yet ready for active inventory. Once the inventory location is ready, the merchant can use the enableInventoryLocation call to enable an inventory location that is in a disabled state.

See StatusEnum for the supported values.

Default: ENABLED
name
The seller-defined name of the inventory location. This name should be a human-friendly name as it will be displayed in In-Store Pickup and Click and Collect listings. A name is not required for warehouse inventory locations. For store inventory locations, this field is not immediately required, but will be required before an offer enabled with the In-Store Pickup or Click and Collect capability can be published. So, if the seller omits this field in a createInventoryLocation call, it becomes required for an updateInventoryLocation call.

Max length: 1000
operatingHours
Although not technically required, this container is highly recommended to be used to specify operating hours for a store inventory location. This container is used to express the regular operating hours for a store location during each day of the week. A dayOfWeekEnum field and an intervals container will be needed for each day of the week that the store location is open.
phone
This field is used to specify the phone number for an inventory location.

Max length: 36
specialHours
array of SpecialHours
This container is used to express the special operating hours for a store inventory location on a specific date, such as a holiday. The special hours specified for the specific date will override the normal operating hours for that particular day of the week.
