Listings Items API v2021-08-01 Use Case Guide

API Version: 2021-08-01

What is the Listings Items API?

Use the Selling Partner API for Listings Items (Listings Items API) to create, edit, delete, and retrieve details about Amazon listings (SKUs) for a selling partner. This includes product facts, such as item titles, and sales terms, such as price and inventory. Refer to the Listings Items API Reference for details about Listings Items API operations and associated data types and schemas.

Listings data submitted to the Listings Items API adheres to the JSON Schema format provided by the Selling Partner API for Product Type Definitions. Refer to the Product Type Definitions API documentation for details on retrieving schemas for supported Amazon product types and validating data prior to submitting to Amazon with the Listings Items API.

Key features

• Retrieve Details about Listings: The Listings Items API accepts GET operations to return detailed information about an existing listing.

• Create or Fully Update Listings: The Listings Items API accepts PUT operations to create a new listing or fully replace the data for an existing listing.

• Partially Update Listings: The Listings Items API accepts PATCH operations to update one or more individual attributes for an existing listing, such as for updating price and quantity. Additionally, the Listings Items API accepts PATCH operations to delete one or more individual attributes for an existing listing.

• Delete Listings: The Listings Items API accepts DELETE operations to delete an existing listing.

• Localized Issue Messages: The Listings Items API provides localized issue messaging either in the locale specified by the calling application or the default locale of the Amazon marketplace.

• Submission Validation: The Listings Items API provides validation of submission data prior to accepting a submission for processing. Validation errors that prevent further processing are provided synchronously to the calling application.

• Validation Preview: Get a real-time preview of errors using the Listings Items API validation preview feature while creating or partially updating listings. This allows you to preview errors synchronously without persisting data to the catalog.

Terminology

• Listing: An Amazon listing is an item that a selling partner has listed for sale on Amazon and is identified by a SKU. Product facts included in Amazon listings are reconciled into Amazon catalog items, which are identified by Amazon Standard Identification Numbers (ASINs).

• Full Update: A full update to an Amazon listing results in full data requirements validation on the submitted data and either creates a new listing or replaces the data for an existing listing.

• Partial Update: A partial update to an Amazon listing results in partial data requirements validation for the attributes provided and updates one or more attributes for an existing listing.

• Product Type: An Amazon product type is a hierarchal categorization of items in the Amazon catalog. Item data requirements are tied to the associated product type of the item.

Considerations

• 1x1 Updates: The Listings Items API accepts listings updates one at a time. For use-cases better suited to bulk uploads, the JSON_LISTINGS_FEED feed type can be used with the Selling Partner API for Feeds. The JSON_LISTINGS_FEED is the bulk equivalent of the Listings Items API, offering the same features and schemas provided by the Selling Partner API for Product Type Definitions.

• Fully Supported Product Types: The Listings Items API does not yet fully support all Amazon product types. Supported Amazon product types differ by selling partner type (merchant or vendor) and by Amazon marketplace. Refer to the Selling Partner API for Product Type Definitions for the latest available Amazon product types.

• Partially Supported Product Types: For Amazon product types not yet fully supported by the Listings Items API, offer-only submissions for existing ASINs and partial updates are supported by using the PRODUCT product type.

• Results and Issues: Responses from the Listings Items putListingsItem, patchListingsItem and deleteListingsItem operations indicate whether or not the submission was accepted for processing, along with any issues preventing the submission from being accepted. Responses do not include issues that occur after accepting the submission for processing. Responses to the Listings Items getListingsItem operation can include issues that occur after the submission has been processed.

• Attributes: The attributes section shows the latest data provided by the selling partner. Other sections, such as fulfillmentAvailability, represent the latest live data for the listing. For example, if the last inventory quantity submitted was 1 and that item is sold, the attributes section shows 1 as the latest value and the fulfillmentAvailability section shows 0 as the live quantity available for purchase.

🚧

Handling generic JSON schemas in client libraries

If you have generated a client library, it is important to note that Swagger Codegen generates types based on properties defined in the Swagger models, and that Swagger Codegen will produce empty or incomplete types when an object is defined with additionalProperties: true. To handle such objects, use the --import-mappings command-line parameter to map these objects to a generic JSON object type or a custom object type of your choosing.

Example Swagger Codegen input parameters:

C#: --import-mappings ItemAttributes=Newtonsoft.Json.Linq.JObject
Java: --import-mappings ItemAttributes=com.google.gson.JsonObject

Tutorial: Retrieve details about a listing

Use this tutorial to return detailed information about an Amazon listing for a given selling partner and Amazon marketplace. The details returned can include a number of optional datasets that provide important information about the state of the listing.

🚧

Important

The new LISTINGS_ITEM_STATUS_CHANGE notification mentioned in the following paragraphs is available only to sellers. The LISTINGS_ITEM_ISSUES_CHANGE notification is available to sellers and vendors.

For example, if you have subscribed to receive the LISTINGS_ITEM_ISSUES_CHANGE notification using the Selling Partner API for Notifications (Notifications API) and you receive the notification, you can call the getListingsItem operation of the Listings Item API to get more details. The LISTINGS_ITEM_ISSUES_CHANGE notification does not include the same level of detailed information about issues as does the API. To return more detailed information, call getListingsItem and specify issues in the includedData parameter to get the issues dataset.

Similarly, if you subscribe to the LISTINGS_ITEM_STATUS_CHANGE notification using the Notifications API and you receive the notification, you can call the getListingsItem operation to receive more detailed info. For example, if a listing ceases to be DISCOVERABLE as indicated in the notification, you might want to get the issues dataset to determine the reason for the search suppression.

For another example, if the LISTINGS_ITEM_STATUS_CHANGE notification does not indicate that the listing is buyable (Status does not include BUYABLE), a common reason could be a lack of inventory. In that case, call the getListingsItem operation and include fulfillmentAvailability in the includedData parameter to return the fulfillmentAvailability dataset.

In general, the datasets available via the includedData parameter will help you better understand the status of the listing. The datasets available include summary information, contributed attributes, issues, offer information (sellers), fulfillment availability (sellers), and procurement details (vendors).

• Authorization from the selling partner for whom you are making calls. Refer to Authorizing Selling Partner API Applications for more information.

Submitting images and other media attributes

The Listings Items API accepts product images and other media content attributes from the following sources:

• Publicly accessible Amazon S3 bucket content downloaded through HTTP or HTTPS URL
• Publicly accessible Amazon CloudFront distribution content downloaded through HTTP or HTTPS URL
• Private Amazon S3 bucket content downloaded through S3 URL (for example, s3://bucket-name/object-name.jpg)

Images hosted on third-party servers are not supported.

If you use a private Amazon S3 bucket, you must also configure your Amazon S3 bucket policy to allow the GetObject and ListBucket operations on the IAM Role accessing the bucket (arn:aws:iam::368641386589:role/Media-Download-Role). Refer to the following S3 bucket policy for an example.

Private Amazon S3 content is treated as immutable, meaning you cannot change the content for an Amazon S3 object key. New media content requires a new Amazon S3 object key. This convention provides the benefit of improved processing times and avoids the cost of redundant downloads in case listing submissions are re-processed.

The following is an example Amazon S3 bucket policy enabling the required operations on a bucket named bucket-name:

{
  "Version": "2012-10-17",
  "Statement": [
    {
      "Sid": "",
      "Action": [
        "s3:GetObject",
        "s3:ListBucket"
      ],
      "Effect": "Allow",
      "Resource": [
        "arn:aws:s3:::bucket-name/*",
        "arn:aws:s3:::bucket-name"
      ],
      "Principal": {
        "AWS": [
          "arn:aws:iam::368641386589:role/Media-Download-Role"
        ]
      }
    }
  ]
