API Deprecation Status

GetSellerDashboard

2023/05/12

2024/04/02

The GetSellerDashboard call of the Trading API will be decommisioned on April 2, 2024. The alternative for this API is Seller Standards Profile methods of the Seller Analytics API.

The following calls have multiple fields being deprecated:

• GetOrders
• GetItemTransactions
• GetSellerTransactions
• GetMyeBaySelling

2023/05/03

2024/01/31

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.

GetMyeBayReminders

2023/05/02

2023/07/17

The GetMyeBayReminders call of the Trading API will be decommisioned and removed from WSDL and docs on July 17, 2023. This call had very little traffic or adoption, and only showed counts for different categories of selling/buying reminders with no other data. Instead of this API, buyers and sellers can go to My eBay to see all of their selling/buying reminders.

PictureDetails.PhotoDisplay field in the following calls:

• AddFixedPriceItem
• AddItem
• AddItems
• GetBidderList
• GetItem
• RelistFixedPriceItem
• RelistItem
• ReviseFixedPriceItem
• ReviseItem
• VerifyAddFixedPriceItem
• VerifyAddItem
• VerifyRelistItem

2023/04/24

2023/07/31

Since all sellers on all eBay marketplaces now get all picture features and functionality (like Super Size/Zoom) at no extra cost, the PictureDetails.PhotoDisplay field in Add/Revise/Relist/Verify calls is longer required to be included in request payload. This field will be removed from the schema and docs on July 31, 2023.

If this field is passed in now, it does not have an effect. If this field is passed in after the decommission date, a generic warning message will be returned that indicates that the element is not recognized.

After decommission date, this field will stop being displayed in GetBidderList and GetItem responses.

GetCharities

2023/04/17

2023/09/18

The GetCharities call of the Trading API will be decommisioned on September 18, 2023. The alternative for this API is Charity API, which has a getCharityOrg method to retrieve details on a specific Charity, and a getCharityOrgs method to retrieve multiple charities based on search filters.

X-EBAY-C-MARKETPLACE-ID request header in the createCustomPolicy, updateCustomPolicy, getCustomPolicy, and getCustomPolicies methods.

2023/03/14

TBD

As a part of Digital Services Act (DSA) requirements, all custom policies will become global (and no longer marketplace-specific). A seller will be able to apply any custom policy to listings on any eBay marketplace where they sell.

Due to this change, the X-EBAY-C-MARKETPLACE-ID request header will no longer be relevant. If this header is passed in, it will just be ignored in all four methods.

The getCustomPolicy method can retrieve any global policy, and the getCustomPolicies method will return all global custom policies.

producerProductId, productDocumentationId, productPackageId, and shipmentPackageId fields in the createOffer, bulkCreateOffer, updateOffer, getOffer, and getOffers methods.

2023/02/27

2023/06/20

These four Extended Producer Responsibility IDs will no longer be set at the listing level. Instead, sellers will provide these IDs at the account level when applicable/required. There are no current plans to support these IDs at the account level through an API, so sellers must provide and update these IDs through their eBay account.

ProducerProductID, ProductDocumentationID, ProductPackageID, and ShipmentPackageID fields in the AddFixedPriceItem, AddItem, AddItems, GetItem, RelistFixedPriceItem, RelistItem, ReviseFixedPriceItem, ReviseItem, VerifyAddFixedPriceItem, VerifyAddItem, and VerifyRelistItem calls.

2023/02/27

These four Extended Producer Responsibility IDs will no longer be set at the listing level. Instead, sellers will provide these IDs at the account level when applicable/required. There are no current plans to support these IDs at the account level through an API, so sellers must provide and update these IDs through their eBay account.

No fields will be deprecated, but the getExtendedProducerResponsibilityPolicies method will stop returning category-level metadata for Producer Product ID, Product Documentation ID, Product Package ID, and Shipment Package ID.

2023/02/27

2023/06/20

These four Extended Producer Responsibility IDs will no longer be set at the listing level, and since there are no current plans to support these IDs at the account level through an API, the category-level metadata will stop being returned.

All

2023/02/03

TBD

All methods of the Return Management API are scheduled to be decommisioned. The official decommission date will be announced once determined. This API is now out of synch with return management flows on eBay. Current users of the Return Management API and all users interested is programmatically managing return requests should make plans to migrate to the Post-Order API.

GetOrderTransactions

2023/01/31

2024/01/31

The GetOrderTransactions call 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.
