Upcoming API changes - Finding API - Deprecating the FindCompletedItems call. #334

Open luzer opened 4 years ago

i got this message. anyone figure out a workaround?

We are making some changes to the Finding API that you may be currently using. As of 10/15/2020, we are deprecating and restricting the findCompletedItems call on the Finding API. This end-point will no longer be accessible by your application.

Information related to items whose listings are completed and are no longer available for sale will be accessible only via the Marketplace Insights API.

Please note that the Marketplace Insights API is restricted and requires eBay Business approval for access.

For access to the Marketplace Insights API, please feel free to contact eBay Developer support via developer.ebay.com.

Sincerely,

eBay Developers Program

I was wondering this too. As of right now using the ebaysdk-python for Finding seems to reject api calls telling me that I am "Over the daily call limit". "Marketplace Insights API" could be an option but "contacting support" looked to be a paid option only. Sounds like ebay asking to be web scrapped.

Any updates on how to get similar results without FindCompletedItems or "Insights API?

Hey,

Were you able to figure out a fix for this ? I cannot access FindCompletedItems and I was not able to get access to Marketplace Insights API. Have you figured it out?
