How can I POST new product?

[GrelaM100]

Hi, I am trying to POST product using SP-API. As far as I understand I should create feed using createFeed method from feeds-api with feedType = " POST_PRODUCT_DATA". However I don't know what feedOptions should I set. In use case guide I found request example for an Easy Ship order. Where can I find information about specific values of feedOptions parameter for every feedType?

In my experience, I recommend that you learn what is the process that Amazon establishes to load products. This involves learning about the product catalog, listings, product detail pages, and offers.

According to the tests I have done, you can load products with different types of files, each one has similar purposes but some are better adapted to some situations than others.

I have already been able to load products with the POST_PRODUCT_DATA feed for which you have to use an XML that you can generate from the schemas indicated here.

You can also use the POST_FLAT_FILE_INVLOADER_DATA feed, for this you will have to use an Excel template that later you will have to convert to a tab-separated-values file. This template can be obtained from Seller Central.

Hello Roger, I tried to upload a Flat file, but for each type: POST_FLAT_FILE_INVLOADER_DATA and POST_FLAT_FILE_PRICEANDQUANTITYONLY_UPDATE_DATA that are 2 differents files, I got the same error:

Exception when calling FeedsApi->createFeed: [400] Client error: POST https://sellingpartnerapi-eu.amazon.com/feeds/2020-09-04/feeds resulted in a 400 Bad Request response: { "errors": [ { "code": "InvalidInput", "message": "1 validation error detected: Value \u0027[]\u0027 (truncated...)

I call the createFeedDocument fist, so I get the documentId, and the signature elements. So I use utf8_encode to convert the file to utf8 and then I encrypt the and upload the file. When I call "createFeed" I get that error.

Do you have any suggestions ?

Thanks

hi @roger-sanchez117 , Do I need to write the xml file by myself, and then upload it encrypted through feeds? Is the process like this?

I am having similar issues but am looking for a way to remove a listing.

[iamsr]

I am also getting external_product_information error even though I checked xsd there is no such field. In excel templates external_production_information is referred to HSN Code but not sure how or what variable needed in xml to input that. Need help.

New to add <CountryOfOrigin>COUNTRY_CODE</CountryOfOrigin> COUNTRY_CODE should be like US, IT, UK etc, and <CountryOfOrigin> must be used inside the <DescriptionData> tag. Hope it should work and help other.

[iamsr]

where to put "LaunchDate"? Earlier it was inside the Product tag but now it won't work with that schema.

Excel模板中格式是怎么样的？与后台手动模板刊登商品模板一致吗？为什么我一直在报错 { "errors": [ { "code": "InvalidInput", "message": "Invalid request parameters", "details": "" } ] }

[rugved1991]

Hi,

When using the XSD or Flat_file options with the Feeds API, you have to generate an XML or CSV file first and then upload it to the Feeds API. The format of the XML and CSV file depends on the type of Feed you are working with. You can use this doc for more information on different types of Feeds and their attributes. For more information on how to generate a feed please refer to seller central help pages linked here.

You can also use the latest Listings API for 1x1 listing submission. If you are interested in bulk submissions, you can use the latest JSON_LISTINGS_FEED which uses the latest JSON schema as a reference for validating submissions.

Please refer to our Listings Management Workflow Guide for more information on how to build and manage listings workflows.

As always, if there are any specific issues with a feed submission, please open a developer support case to troubleshoot the issue in detail.

@roger-sanchez117

Is it compulsory to use both of them (_POST_PRODUCTDATA and _POST_FLAT_FILE_INVLOADERDATA) to upload products to Amazon Marketplace or can I use only the latter (provided that I already possess a .xlsx file) and completely skip the former?

Hello Everyone,

I am getting below warning when trying to submit feed with feed type: "POST_PRODUCT_DATA". Below link saying

Feed types that will be sunset on March 31, 2025:

POST_PRODUCT_DATA
POST_INVENTORY_AVAILABILITY_DATA

The feed type used for this submission via the Selling Partner Feeds API will be sunset on March 31, 2025. To continue submitting listings data through APIs (including pricing and inventory updates), you will need to migrate to the Selling Partner Listings Items APIs or the JSON_LISTINGS_FEED feed type submitted via the Selling Partner Feeds API. If you have received this message through a third-party solution, please contact your solution provider. If you are using the Selling Partner Feeds API directly, more details on migrating can be found on the Selling Partner API developer documentation website here : https://developer-docs.amazon.com/sp-api/changelog/deprecation-of-feeds-api-support-for-xml-and-flat-file-listings-feeds.
