GET/item

This method lets you download a TSV_GZIP (tab separated value gzip) Item feed file. The feed file contains all the items from all the child categories of the specified category. The first line of the file is the header, which labels the columns and indicates the order of the values on each line. Each header is described in the Response fields section.

There are two types of item feed files generated:

  • A daily Item feed file containing all the newly listed items for a specific category, date, and marketplace (feed_scope = NEWLY_LISTED)
  • A weekly Item Bootstrap feed file containing all the items in a specific category and marketplace (feed_scope = ALL_ACTIVE)

Note: Filters are applied to the feed files. For details, see Feed File Filters. When curating the items returned, be sure to code as if these filters are not applied as they can be changed or removed in the future.
Note:The downloaded file will be gzipped automatically, so there is no reason to supply Accept-Encoding:gzip as a header. If this header is supplied, the downloaded file will be compressed twice, and this has no extra benefit.

Downloading feed files

Item feed files are binary gzip files. If the file is larger than 100 MB, the download must be streamed in chunks. You specify the size of the chunks in bytes using the Range request header. The Content-range response header indicates where in the full resource this partial chunk of data belongs and the total number of bytes in the file.For more information about using these headers, see Retrieve a gzip feed file.

In addition to the API, there is an open source Feed SDK written in Java that downloads, combines files into a single file when needed, and unzips the entire feed file. It also lets you specify field filters to curate the items in the file.

Note: A successful call will always return a TSV.GZIP file; however, unsuccessful calls generate errors that are returned in JSON format. For documentation purposes, the successful call response is shown below as JSON fields so that the value returned in each column can be explained. The order of the response fields shows the order of the columns in the feed file.

Input

Resource URI

GET https://api.ebay.com/buy/feed/v1_beta/item?

This method is supported in Sandbox environment. To access the endpoint, just replace the api.ebay.com root URI with api.sandbox.ebay.com

URI parameters

ParameterTypeDescription
feed_scopestringThis query parameter specifies the type of feed file to return.

Valid Values:
  • NEWLY_LISTED - Returns the daily Item feed file containing all Good 'Til Cancelled items that were listed on the day specified by the date parameter in the category specified by the category_id parameter.
  • ALL_ACTIVE - Returns the weekly Item Bootstrap feed file containing all the Good 'Til Cancelled items in the category specified by the category_id parameter.

    Note: Bootstrap files are generated every Tuesday and the file is available on Wednesday. However, the exact time the file is available can vary so we recommend you download the Bootstrap file on Thursday. The items in the file are the items that were in the specified category on Sunday.

Occurrence: Required

category_idstringThis query parameter specifies the eBay top-level category ID of the items to be returned in the feed file.

The list of eBay category IDs changes over time and category IDs are not the same across all the eBay marketplaces. To get a list of the top-level categories for a marketplace, you can use the Taxonomy API getCategoryTree method. This method retrieves the complete category tree for the marketplace. The top-level categories are identified by the categoryTreeNodeLevel field.

For example:
  "categoryTreeNodeLevel": 1

For details see Get Categories for Buy APIs.

Restriction: Must be a top-level (L1) category other than Real Estate. Items listed under Real Estate L1 categories are excluded from all feeds in all marketplaces.

Occurrence: Required

datestringThis query parameter specifies the date of the daily Item feed file (feed_scope=NEWLY_LISTED) you want to retrieve.

The date is required only for the daily Item feed file. If you specify a date for the Item Bootstrap file (feed_scope=ALL_ACTIVE), the date is ignored and the latest file is returned. The date the Item Bootstrap feed file was generated is returned in the Last-Modified response header.

The Item feed files are generated every day and there are 14 daily files available.

Note: The daily Item feed files are available each day after 9AM MST (US Mountain Standard Time), which is -7 hours UTC time.

There is a 48 hour latency when generating the Item feed files. This means you can download the file for July 10th on July 12 after 9AM MST.

For categories with a large number of items, the latency can be up to 72 hours.

Format: yyyyMMdd

Requirements:
  • Required when feed_scope=NEWLY_LISTED
  • Must be within 3-14 days in the past

Occurrence: Optional

HTTP request headers

All requests made to eBay REST operations require you to provide the Authorization HTTP header for authentication authorization.

The table below shows additional HTTP request headers that are either required, conditionally required, or strongly recommended for this method. Other standard HTTP request headers- opens rest request components page (not in this table) can also be used, but they are optional.

HeaderTypeDescription
AcceptstringThe formats that the client accepts for the response.

For a list of supported sites see, API Restrictions.

Occurrence: Required

RangestringThis header specifies the range in bytes of the chunks of the gzip file being returned.

Format: bytes=startpos-endpos

For example, the following retrieves the first 10 MBs of the feed file.

  Range bytes=0-10485760

For more information about using this header, see Retrieving a gzip feed file.

Maximum: 100 MB (10MB in the Sandbox)

Occurrence: Required

HTTP response headers

See HTTP response headers for details.

HeaderMeaning
Content-rangeThe content-range response header indicates where in the full resource this partial chunk of data belongs. It returns the lower and upper values in bytes (specified by the Range header) of the chunk and the total size of the file being downloaded in bytes.

Maximum range: 100 MB

The following is an example of a content-range response, where 0-10 is the lower and upper limit in bytes and 1000 is the total size of the file in bytes.

  0-10/1000

The following example of a content-range response indicates the value of the Range header is invalid and a 416 status code is returned.

   */1000

For more information and examples, see Retrieving a gzip feed file.
Last-ModifiedReturns the generated date of the feed file, which will be the latest file available. For example:
Last-Modified  Wed, 21 Oct 2015 07:28:00 GMT

  • Multiple descriptors are separated by a semicolon ;
    Name1:Value1;Name2:Value2

    Base64 encoding the above multiple descriptors yields TmFtZTE=:VmFsdWUx;TmFtZTI=:VmFsdWUy
  • Multiple values are separated by a pipe |

Note: The separators ( : ; | ) are not encoded. You must decode each name, and value or values separately. You cannot decode the entire string.
The name and value are numeric IDs that map to the name and value, respectively, of a condition descriptor. A condition descriptor name-value pair provides more information about an item's condition in a structured way. Descriptors are name-value attributes that can be either from a closed set or open text. For more information on the numeric IDs and their text equivalents, use the getItemConditionPolicies method of the Metadata API.
