Regulatory changes

Note: The EnergyEfficiencyLabel and the Hazmat containers are initially available only on the German (DE) marketplace. The RepairScore field is provided for future use (not presently available).

As a part of Digital Services Act (DSA) requirements, the EnergyEfficiencyLabel container and its child fields ImageDescription, ImageURL, and ProductInformationsheet, can be used by the seller to provide Energy Efficiency Label related information for the listing. This information is passed in using the Add/Revise/Relist/Verify calls and returned by calling GetItem.

RegionalProductCompliancePolicies and RegionalTakeBackPolicies fields were added, providing compliance functionality specified by region, and ProductCompliancePolicyID now applies to Global product compliance policies.

Numerous fields scheduled for decommission in order management calls

Numerous fields in the response payloads of the GetOrders, GetItemTransactions, GetSellerTransactions, and GetMyeBaySelling calls are being deprecated. See the Deprecated Trading Order Management Fields document for the complete list of deprecated fields and reasons for deprecation.

Documentation Changes and Errata - 1311

This section lists additional documentation changes and corrections that were made with this release and that are not already mentioned in New Features - 1311 and Changed Functionality - 1311.

Logic change for Total and AmountPaid fields in GetOrders

The field descriptions for Order.Total and Order.AmountPaid fieldsin GetOrders incorrectly stated that sales tax was included in those two amounts, but that was not the case prior to Version 1307. Going foward, sales tax will be included in these amounts if using Trading WSDL Version 1307 or above. If using a Trading WSDL older than Version 1307, the amount in thes fields will not include sales tax. To incorporate the new logic (sales tax included) while using a Trading WSDL that is older than 1307, developers can also use the X-EBAY-API-COMPATIBILITY-LEVEL header and set its value to 1307 or higher.

Six Dispute Calls Decommissioned

The following six Dispute calls have been decommissioned as of January 31, 2023. These calls and their exclusively used types have been removed from the Trading WSDL and from reference documentation:

• AddDispute
• AddDisputeResponse
• DisableUnpaidItemAssistance
• GetDispute
• GetUserDisputes
• SellerReverseDispute

The DisableUnpaidItemAssistance, AddDisputeResponse, and SellerReverseDispute calls do not have alternative APIs to use since the Unpaid Item Assistant feature and Unpaid Item cases are deprecated. However, there is a page in Selling Preferences in My eBay that allows a seller to cancel and relist any items that have not been paid for after a specified amount of days.

There are REST API equivalents for the other three calls as follows:

• AddDispute: Use the Create Cancellation Request method of the Post-Order API to make an order cancellation request.
• GetDispute: Use the Get Cancellation method of the Post-Order API to retrieve details on a specific cancellation request.
• GetUserDisputes: Use the Search Cancellations method of the Post-Order API to search for cancellation requests using a variety of search filters.

GetOrderTransactions Call Deprecated

The GetOrderTransactions call is deprecated and will be decommissioned on January 31, 2024. No further updates are planned for this API during the deprecation period. Developers have the option of migrating to the GetOrders call in the Trading API, or the getOrders method of the Fulfillment API. Please note that the Fulfillment API only returns paid orders, so if your use case calls for retrieving both paid and unpaid orders, we recommend migrating to the GetOrders call in the Trading API.

A new intermediated international shipping program has been added

A new intermediated international shipping program called eBay International Shipping is available. On the US marketplace, the Global Shipping Program is scheduled to be replaced by this new intermediated shipping program (eBay International Shipping). US Sellers opted in to the Global Shipping Program will automatically get opted into eBay International Shipping once it becomes available to them. All US sellers will be migrated by March 31, 2023. As long as the US seller's account is opted in to eBay International Shipping, this shipping option will be automatically enabled for all listings where international shipping is available.

Support for eBay International Shipping has been added to GetOrders, GetSellerTransactions, GetItemTransactions, and GetOrderTransactions calls. The eBay International Shipping partner's address is shown in the MultiLegShippingDetails.SellerShipmentToLogisticsProvider.ShipToAddress container. Additionally, similar to the ReferenceID field provided for the Global Shipping Program, the eBay Virtual Tracking number (eVTN) that is used for the domestic leg of the shipment is appended to the Street2 field (not in the ReferenceID field).

Four Store Calls Scheduled for Decommission on September 30

The new Stores platform no longer supports custom store pages and other customization functionality, so the following four store calls are deprecated and scheduled for decommission on September 30, 2022:

• GetStoreCustomPage
• GetStoreOptions
• SetStore
• SetStoreCustomPage

Although these four calls still work and will continue to work up until the decommission date, it is recommended that they are no longer used since none of the customization features in these calls can be applied to stores in the Production environment

Additionally, the following containers and fields related to store customization in the GetStore call are also deprecated and scheduled for decommission on September 30, 2022:

• CustomHeader (string)
• CustomHeaderLayout (enum)
• CustomListingHeader (whole container)
• ExportListings (boolean)
• HeaderStyle (enum)
• HomePage (long)
• ItemListLayout (enum)
• ItemListSortOrder (enum)
• Logo.LogoID (int)
• Logo.Name (string)
• Theme (whole container)
• TitleWithCompatibility (boolean)

HitCounter field removed from WSDL

The HitCounter field has been removed from the WSDL. It can no longer be used in Add/Revise calls, nor will it be returned in GetItem, GetBidderList, GetSellerEvents, or GetSellerList.

HitCount field updates

The HitCount field will no longer be returned in GetItem or GetBidderList, but it will continue to be returned in GetSellerEvents and GetSellerList, but with a logic change. Instead of the HitCount value representing the lifetime hit count for listings, the value will be the total number of page hits within the latest 30-day period.

Quantity and StartPrice no longer returned in ReviseInventoryStatus

The Quantity and StartPrice fields will no longer be returned in the ReviseInventoryStatus response. However, these fields will function the same as before in ReviseInventoryStatus request. If users would like to verify if their price and/or quanity changes were successfully pushed out to the listing (or variation within a listing), they can use the GetItem call to verify the changes.

GetCategorySpecifics Call Decommisioned

The GetCategorySpecifics call has been decommisioned, and the call reference documentation has been removed. Additionally, all types exclusively used by GetCategorySpecifics have been removed from the Trading WSDL. You can see the full list of removed types in the Schema Changes section.

The alternative solution to GetCategorySpecifics is the getItemAspectsForCategory method of the Taxonomy API. For more information about migrating to the Taxonomy API and using the Taxonomy SDK, see the Taxonomy API migration guide.

HitCounter and HitCount Fields Deprecated

Hit counters are no longer displayed in View Item pages, so the HitCounter and HitCount fields are no longer applicable and are scheduled for decommission. For developers/sellers who are interested in seeing page views and listing performance, the getTrafficReport method of the Sell Analytics API can be used.

Currently, if the HitCounter field is used in the request payload of an add/revise/relist/verify call, the field will be ignored and a warning message will be returned.

Until both fields are decommissioned, the HitCounter and HitCount fields will still be returned in GetItem, GetBidderList, GetSellerEvents, and GetSellerList. For HitCounter, the default value for the marketplace will be returned, such as NoHitCounter or HiddenStyle.
