SYNOPSIS

INHERITANCE

eBay::API::XML::DataType::ProductListingDetailsType inherits from the eBay::API::XML::BaseDataType class

Subroutines:

setCopyright()

Copyright statement indicating the source of the product information. This information will be included in the listing with Pre-filled Item Information. Your application should also display the copyright statement when rendering the Pre-filled Item Information. If more than one copyright statement is applicable, they can be presented to the user in alphabetical order. Returned as HTML. Output only.

# Argument: reference to an array of 'xs:string'

getCopyright()

# Returns: reference to an array of 'xs:string'

setIncludePrefilledItemInformation()

If true, specifies that the listing should include additional information about the product, such as a publisher's description or film credits. Such information is hosted through the eBay site and cannot be edited. If true, Item.Description is optional in item-listing requests.

setIncludeStockPhotoURL()

If true, indicates that the item listing includes the stock photo. To use an eBay stock photo in an item listing, set IncludeStockPhotoURL to true. If a stock photo is available, it is used at the top of the View Item page and in the Item Specifics section of the listing. If you also include Item.PictureDetails.PictureURL, the stock photo only appears in the Item Specifics section of the listing. Other pictures you specify by using Item.PictureDetails.PictureURL appear in a separate section of the listing. If you use Item.ExternalProductID instead of Item.ProductListingDetails, eBay sets IncludeStockPhotoURL to true (and you cannot set it to false). In GetItem, the URL of the stock photo will be returned in StockPhotoURL. If you set IncludeStockPhotoURL to false, the stock photo does not appear in the listing at all.<br> <br> <span class="tablenote"><b>Note:</b> As of 02-20-2008, the following sites offer free Gallery: US (site ID 0), Parts & Accessories Category on US Motors (site ID 100), CA (site ID 2), CAFR (site ID 210), FR (site ID 71) and NL (site ID 146).

A Gallery fee will only apply if you have set GalleryType to Plus or Featured (as basic Gallery is free).<br> <br> Along with these changes, IncludeStockPhotoURL will be used in the request. In some cases, if IncludeStockPhotoURL is set to false, no image will be generated for the Gallery. A common example of this occurrence is when only GalleryURL has been set in the request (i.e., no PictureURL elements are defined). In this case, eBay will not use a stock photo, even if it is available.

setProductID()

Applicable when ProductListingDetails is used. Unique identifier for the product. See the Developer's Guide for information about determining product IDs. If the primary and secondary categories are both catalog-enabled, this ID should correspond to the primary category (not the secondary category). In item-listing requests, if you pass in an old product ID, eBay will list the item with the latest version of the product and the latest product ID, and the call will return a warning indicating that the data has changed. To list an item with Pre-filled Item Information by using an ISBN, EAN, or UPC value, use ExternalProductID (defined on AddItem) instead. Either ExternalProductID (for an ISBN, UPC, EAN or eBay product ID) or Item.ProductListingDetails.ProductID (for an eBay product ID) can be specified in AddItem requests, but not both. <br> <br> As of mid-2008, some sites (such as eBay US, Germany, Austria, and Switzerland) are updating, replacing, deleting, or merging some products (as a result of migrating from one catalog data provider to another). If you use an older product ID that has been deleted (and that has not been mapped to a new product), the request will fail.

setUseStockPhotoURLAsGallery()

If true, indicates that the stock photo for an item (if available) is used as the gallery thumbnail. When listing an item, IncludeStockPhotoURL must also be true and Item.PictureDetails.GalleryType must be passed in with a value of Gallery or Gallery Featured (but not both). Passing in Item.PictureDetails.GalleryURL takes precedence over UseStockPhotoURLAsGallery. See the eBay Web Services Guide for additional validation rules for pictures. <br> <br> <span class="tablenote"><b>Note:</b> As of 02-20-2008, the following sites offer free Gallery: US (site ID 0), Parts & Accessories Category on US Motors (site ID 100), CA (site ID 2), CAFR (site ID 210), FR (site ID 71) and NL (site ID 146).
