NAME

eBay::API::XML::Call::GetCategoryListings::GetCategoryListingsRequestType

DESCRIPTION

Returns items in a specified category. A number of inputs are provided for filtering the item listings returned using such criteria as location, whether the item is listed in an ebay Store, the listing type, and including or excluding specified sellers. <p>It is recommended that you consider using FindItemsAdvanced (in the Shopping API) instead of GetCategoryListings because FindItemsAdvanced is easier to use and faster. See <a href="http://developer.ebay.com/products/shopping/" target="_blank">Shopping AP/a for more information. </p>

SYNOPSIS

INHERITANCE

eBay::API::XML::Call::GetCategoryListings::GetCategoryListingsRequestType inherits from the eBay::API::XML::RequestDataType class

Subroutines:

setAdFormat()

Restricts listings to return only items that have the Ad Format feature. If true, the values of ItemTypeFilter and StoreSearchFilter are ignored (if they are specified). That is, "AND" logic is not applied.

  RequiredInput: No
#    Argument: 'xs:boolean'

isAdFormat()

# Returns: 'xs:boolean'

setCategoryID()

Specifies the category for which to retrieve item listings.

SeeLink: URL: http://developer.ebay.com/DevZone/XML/docs/WebHelp/index.htm?context=eBay_XML_API&topic=SearchingByCategoryID Title: Searching by Category ID MaxLength: 10

  RequiredInput: Yes
#    Argument: 'xs:string'

getCategoryID()

# Returns: 'xs:string'

setCurrency()

A currency value. Limits the result set to just those items listed using a specified currency. Not applicable to US eBay Motors searches.

  RequiredInput: No
#    Argument: 'ns:CurrencyCodeType'

getCurrency()

# Returns: 'ns:CurrencyCodeType'

setFreeShipping()

If true, only items with free shipping for the user's location are returned. The user's location is determined from the site ID specified in the request. If false, no filtering is done via this attribute. A listing is not considered a free shipping listing if it requires insurance or requires pick up or requires a shipping surcharge.

Default: false

  RequiredInput: No
#    Argument: 'xs:boolean'

isFreeShipping()

# Returns: 'xs:boolean'

setGroup()

You can group Best Match search results by category. To group by category, put the BestMatchCategoryGroup value in the OrderBy field. When you use the BestMatchCategoryGroup value, you can include group parameters in your call. Note that there will be significanty fewer results returned with a BestMatchCategoryGroup sort because the results account for Best Matches in lower-level (leaf) as well as higher-level categories. There is not a direct correlation between the number of results returned in a regular sort or the number of results returned with a BestMatch sort, and the results that are returned by the BestMatchCategoryGroup sort. You should not receive more than 2 pages of results with this type of sort. See also the new GroupCategoryID element in ItemType.

  RequiredInput: No
#    Argument: 'ns:GroupType'

getGroup()

# Returns: 'ns:GroupType'

setIncludeCondition()

If true, each item in the result set can also include the item condition (whether the item is new or used). The item's condition is returned in Item.AttributeSetArray. An item only includes condition attribute if the item's seller filled in the Item Condition in the Item Specifics section of the listing. (That is, the condition is not returned if the seller only put the word "New" in the listing's title.)

  RequiredInput: No
#    Argument: 'xs:boolean'

isIncludeCondition()

# Returns: 'xs:boolean'

setIncludeFeedback()

If true, each item in the result set also includes information about the seller's feedback.

  RequiredInput: No
#    Argument: 'xs:boolean'

isIncludeFeedback()

# Returns: 'xs:boolean'

setIncludeGetItFastItems()

When passed with a value of true, limits the results to Get It Fast listings.

  RequiredInput: No
#    Argument: 'xs:boolean'

isIncludeGetItFastItems()

# Returns: 'xs:boolean'

setItemTypeFilter()

Filters items based on the ListingType set for the items. If ItemTypeFilter is not specified (or if the AllItemTypes value of ItemTypeFilter is specified), all listing types can be returned unless another relevant filter is specified.

SeeLink: URL: http://developer.ebay.com/DevZone/XML/docs/WebHelp/index.htm?context=eBay_XML_API&topic=SearchingByListingType Title: Searching By Listing Type

  RequiredInput: No
#    Argument: 'ns:ItemTypeFilterCodeType'

setMaxRelatedSearchKeywords()

The maximum number of related keywords to be retrieved. Use this field if you want the results to include recommended keywords (that is, keywords matching the category ID) in a RelatedSearchKeywordArray container. A value of 0 (the default) means no related search information is processed.

Max: 100 Min: 0

  RequiredInput: No
#    Argument: 'xs:int'

getMaxRelatedSearchKeywords()

# Returns: 'xs:int'

setMotorsGermanySearchable()

  RequiredInput: No
#    Argument: 'xs:boolean'
