Standard Input Fields   [Jump to call-specific fields]
ErrorLanguage string Optional Use ErrorLanguage to return error strings for the call in a different language from the language commonly associated with the site that the requesting user is registered with. Specify the standard RFC 3066 language identification tag (e.g., en_US).
ID--- country

See Tags for the Identification of Languages.

MessageID string Optional In most cases, all calls support a MessageID element in the request and a CorrelationID element in the response. If you pass a message ID in a request, we will return the same value in CorrelationID in the response. You can use this for tracking that a response is returned for every request and to match particular responses to particular requests. If you do not pass MessageID in the request, CorrelationID is not returned.

Note: GetCategories, GetAttributesCS, GetCategory2CS, GetAttributesXSL, GetProductFinder, GetProductFinderXSL, and GetProductSearchPage are designed to retrieve very large sets of metadata that change once a day or less often. To improve performance, these calls return cached responses when you request all available data (with no filters). When this occurs, the MessageID and CorrelationID fields aren't applicable. However, if you specify an input filter to reduce the amount of data returned, the calls retrieve the latest data (not cached). When this occurs, MessageID and CorrelationID are applicable.
OutputSelector string Optional,
repeatable: [0..*]
You can use the OutputSelector field to restrict the data returned by this call. When you make a call such as GetItem that retrieves data from eBay, the OutputSelector field is useful for restricting the data returned. This field makes the call response easier to use, especially when a large payload would be returned. If you use the OutputSelector field, the output data will include only the fields you specified in the request. For example, if you are using GetItem and you want the item data in the response to be restricted to the ViewItemURL (the URL where a user can view the listing) and BuyItNowPrice, then within the GetItem request, specify those output fields. To use this field, see the information at the following link.

See Selecting Fields to Retrieve.

Version string Conditional The version number of the API code that you are programming against (e.g., 549). The version you specify for a call has these basic effects:
- It indicates the version of the code lists and other data that eBay should use to process your request.
- It indicates the schema version you are using.
You need to use a version that is greater than or equal to the lowest supported version.

For the SOAP API: If you are using the SOAP API, this field is required. Specify the version of the WSDL your application is using.

For the XML API: If you are using the XML API, this field has no effect. Instead, specify the version in the X-EBAY-API-COMPATIBILITY-LEVEL HTTP header. (If you specify Version in the body of an XML API request and it is different from the value in the HTTP header, eBay returns an informational warning that the value in the HTTP header was used instead.)

See:
    HTTP Headers (XML API Only)
    eBay Schema Versioning Strategy
    Lowest Supported Version

WarningLevel WarningLevelCodeType Optional Controls whether or not to return warnings when the application passes unrecognized or deprecated elements in a request.

An unrecognized element is one that is not defined in any supported version of the schema. Schema element names are case-sensitive, so using WarningLevel can also help you remove any potential hidden bugs within your application due to incorrect case or spelling in field names before you put your application into the Production environment.

WarningLevel only validates elements; it doesn't validate XML attributes. It also doesn't control warnings related to user-entered strings or numbers, or warnings for logical errors.

We recommend that you only use this during development and debugging. Do not use this in requests in your production code.

Applicable values:

•   High

(in) Return warnings when the application passes unrecognized or deprecated elements in a request.

•   Low

(in) Do not return warnings when the application passes unrecognized or deprecated elements in a request. This is the default value if WarningLevel is not specified.


See Warning Level.

AccountHistorySelection AccountHistorySelectionCodeType Conditional Specifies the report format in which to return account entries.

Applicable values:

•   BetweenSpecifiedDates

(in) Contains entries that were posted to the seller's account between two dates. The period covered may cross the boundaries of formal invoices. If you use BetweenSpecifiedDates, then you also must specify BeginDate and EndDate. If you use BetweenSpecifiedDates, then InvoiceDate is ignored.

•   CustomCode

(in) Reserved for internal or future use.

•   LastInvoice

(in) Contains the entries since the last invoice eBay sent to the seller. If you use LastInvoice, then InvoiceDate, BeginDate and EndDate are ignored.

•   SpecifiedInvoice

(in) Contains the entries for a specific invoice, identified by the invoice month and year. If you use SpecifiedInvoice, then you must also use InvoiceDate. If you use SpecifiedInvoice, then BeginDate and EndDate are ignored.


BeginDate dateTime Conditional Specifies the beginning of a date range during which a credit or debit occurred. Used when AccountHistorySelection is BetweenSpecifiedDates. Value must be less than or equal to the value specified in EndDate. The allowed date formats are YYYY-MM-DD and YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss. You can retrieve information that is up to 4 months old.
Currency CurrencyCodeType Optional Specifies the currency used in the account report. Do not specify Currency in the request unless the following conditions are met. First, the user has or had multiple accounts under the same UserID. Second, the account identified in the request uses the currency you specify in the request. An error is returned if no account is found that uses the currency you specify in the request.

Applicable values: See Currency.
EndDate dateTime Conditional Specifies the end of a date range during which a credit or debit occurred. Used when AccountHistorySelection is BetweenSpecifiedDates. Value must be greater than or equal to the value specified in BeginDate. The allowed date formats are YYYY-MM-DD and YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss.
ExcludeBalance boolean Optional Specifies whether to calculate balances. Default is false, which calculates balances. The value true means do not calculate balances. If true, AccountEntry.Balance and AccountSummary.CurrentBalance are never returned in the response.
ExcludeSummary boolean Optional Specifies whether to return account summary information in an AccountSummary node. Default is true, to return AccountSummary.
InvoiceDate dateTime Conditional Specifies the month and year of the invoice requested. The report includes only the entries that appear on the seller's invoice in the specified month and year. An entry can occur in one month and appear on the next month's invoice. Used with SpecifiedInvoice reports.
ItemID ItemIDType (string) Optional Specifies the item ID for which to return account entries. If ItemID is used, all other filters in the request are ignored. If the specified item does not exist or if the requesting user is not the seller of the item, an error is returned.
Pagination PaginationType Optional Controls pagination of the response. For this request, the valid values of Pagination.EntriesPerPage are 0 to 2000, with a default of 500.
Pagination.EntriesPerPage int Optional Specifies the maximum number of entries to return in a single call. If the number of entries that can be returned is less than the value in EntriesPerPage, then the lower number is returned. For most calls, the max is 200 and the default is 25. For GetUserDisputes, the value is hard-coded at 200, and any input is ignored. For GetProducts, the maximum is 20 (and higher values are ignored). See the annotations for other individual calls to determine the correct max and default values. For GetOrders, not applicable to eBay.com (but applicable to Half.com for GetOrders).
Pagination.PageNumber int Optional Specifies the number of the page of data to return in the current call. Default is 1 for most calls. For some calls, the default is 0. Specify a positive value equal to or lower than the number of pages available (which you determine by examining the results of your initial request). See the documentation for other individual calls to determine the correct default value. For GetOrders, not applicable to eBay.com (for GetOrders, applicable to Half.com).
Min: 1. Default: 1.

Return Value Type Occurrence Meaning
Standard Output Fields   [Jump to call-specific fields]
Ack AckCodeType Always A token representing the application-level acknowledgement code that indicates the response status (e.g., success). The AckCodeType list specifies the possible values for Ack.

Applicable values:

•   CustomCode

(out) Reserved for internal or future use.

•   Failure

(out) Request processing failed

•   Success

(out) Request processing succeeded

•   Warning

(out) Request processing completed with warning information being included in the response message


(Not all values in AckCodeType apply to this field.)
Build string Always This refers to the specific software build that eBay used when processing the request and generating the response. This includes the version number plus additional information. eBay Developer Support may request the build information when helping you resolve technical issues.
CorrelationID string Conditionally In most cases, all calls support a MessageID element in the request and a CorrelationID element in the response. If you pass a message ID in a request, we will return the same value in CorrelationID in the response. You can use this for tracking that a response is returned for every request and to match particular responses to particular requests. If you do not pass MessageID in the request, CorrelationID is not returned.

Note: GetCategories, GetAttributesCS, GetCategory2CS, GetAttributesXSL, GetProductFinder, GetProductFinderXSL, and GetProductSearchPage are designed to retrieve very large sets of metadata that change once a day or less often. To improve performance, these calls return cached responses when you request all available data (with no filters). When this occurs, the MessageID and CorrelationID fields aren't applicable. However, if you specify an input filter to reduce the amount of data returned, the calls retrieve the latest data (not cached). When this occurs, MessageID and CorrelationID are applicable.
Errors ErrorType Conditionally,
repeatable: [0..*]
A list of application-level errors (if any) that occurred when eBay processed the request.

See Error Handling.

Errors.ErrorClassification ErrorClassificationCodeType Conditionally API errors are divided between two classes: system errors and request errors.

Applicable values:

•   CustomCode

(out) Reserved for internal or future use.

•   RequestError

(out) An error has occurred either as a result of a problem in the sending application or because the application's end-user has attempted to submit invalid data (or missing data). In these cases, do not retry the request. The problem must be corrected before the request can be made again. If the problem is due to something in the application (such as a missing required field), the application must be changed. If the problem is a result of end-user data, the application must alert the end-user to the problem and provide the means for the end-user to correct the data. Once the problem in the application or data is resolved, resend the request to eBay with the corrected data.

•   SystemError

(out) Indicates that an error has occurred on the eBay system side, such as a database or server down. An application can retry the request as-is a reasonable number of times (eBay recommends twice). If the error persists, contact Developer Technical Support. Once the problem has been resolved, the request may be resent in its original form.


Errors.ErrorCode token Conditionally A unique code that identifies the particular error condition that occurred. Your application can use error codes as identifiers in your customized error-handling algorithms. See the "Errors by Number" document.
Errors.ErrorParameters ErrorParameterType Conditionally,
repeatable: [0..*]
This optional element carries a list of context-specific error variables that indicate details about the error condition. These are useful when multiple instances of ErrorType are returned.
Errors.ErrorParameters
  [ attribute ParamID ]
string Conditionally The index of the parameter in the list of parameter types returned within the error type.
Errors.ErrorParameters.Value string Conditionally The value of the variable (e.g., the attribute set ID)
Errors.LongMessage string Conditionally A more detailed description of the condition that raised the error.
Errors.SeverityCode SeverityCodeType Conditionally Indicates whether the error is a severe error (causing the request to fail) or an informational error (a warning) that should be communicated to the user.

Applicable values:

•   CustomCode

(out) Reserved for internal or future use

•   Error

(out) Application-level error

•   Warning

(out) Warning or informational error


Errors.ShortMessage string Conditionally A brief description of the condition that raised the error.
HardExpirationWarning string Conditionally Expiration date of the user's authentication token. Only returned within the 7-day period prior to a token's expiration. To ensure that user authentication tokens are secure and to help avoid a user's token being compromised, tokens have a limited life span. A token is only valid for a period of time (set by eBay). After this amount of time has passed, the token expires and must be replaced with a new token.
Timestamp dateTime Always This value represents the date and time when eBay processed the request. The time zone of this value is GMT and the format is the ISO 8601 date and time format (YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS.SSSZ). See Time Values in the eBay Web Services guide for information about this time format and converting to and from the GMT time zone.

Note: GetCategories, GetAttributesCS, GetCategory2CS, GetAttributesXSL, GetProductFinder, GetProductFinderXSL, and GetProductSearchPage are designed to retrieve very large sets of metadata that change once a day or less often. To improve performance, these calls return cached responses when you request all available data (with no filters). When this occurs, this time value reflects the time the cached response was created. Thus, this value is not necessarily when the request was processed. However, if you specify an input filter to reduce the amount of data returned, the calls retrieve the latest data (not cached). When this occurs, this time value does reflect when the request was processed.
Version string Always The version of the response payload schema. Indicates the version of the schema that eBay used to process the request. See "Standard Data for All Calls" in the eBay Web Services Guide for information on using the response version when troubleshooting "CustomCode" values that appear in the response.

AccountEntries.AccountEntry
  .RefNumber
string Conditionally eBay reference number for the account entry. May return no value for some account transactions, such as an administrative action like placing the user's credit card on file. You can uniquely identify the entries that the GetAccount call returns within the AccountEntries tag. Specifically, the following fields, returned within the AccountEntries tag, can be used in combination as a unique key: AccountEntry.Date, AccountEntry.AccountDetailsEntryType, AccountEntry.ItemID, and AccountEntry.RefNumber.
AccountEntries.AccountEntry
  .Title
string Conditionally Title of the entry.
AccountEntries.AccountEntry
  .VATPercent
decimal Conditionally VAT rate for the item. When the VATPercent is specified, the item's VAT information appears on the item's listing page. In addition, the seller can choose to print an invoice that includes the item's net price, VAT percent, VAT amount, and total price. Since VAT rates vary depending on the item and on the user's country of residence, a seller is responsible for entering the correct VAT rate; it is not calculated by eBay. To specify a VATPercent, a seller must have a VAT-ID registered with eBay and must be listing the item on a VAT-enabled site. Max precision 3 decimal places. Max length 5 characters. Note: The View Item page displays the precision to 2 decimal places with no trailing zeros. However, the full value you send in is stored. Returned for all users, not just VAT users, with GetAccountResponse.
