See more eBay Examples

This example shows how to create a new inventory item record or update an existing inventory item record.

See Create or Replace Inventory Item for more REST API details.

Rust

// This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

// This example sends the following sample PUT request to create (or replace) a new inventory item.

// PUT https://api.ebay.com/sell/inventory/v1/inventory_item/GP-Cam-01
// { 
// "availability":
//     { 
//     "shipToLocationAvailability":
//         { 
//         "quantity": 50
//         }
//     },
// "condition": "NEW",
// "product":
//     { 
//     "title": "GoPro Hero4 Helmet Cam",
//     "description": "New GoPro Hero4 Helmet Cam. Unopened box.",
//     "aspects": {
//         "Brand" :["GoPro"],
//         "Type" : ["Helmet/Action"],
//         "Storage Type" : ["Removable"],
//         "Recording Definition" : ["High Definition"],
//         "Media Format" : ["Flash Drive (SSD)"],
//         "Optical Zoom" : ["10x"]
//       },
//     "imageUrls": [
//         "http://i.ebayimg.com/images/i/182196556219-0-1/s-l1000.jpg",
//         "http://i.ebayimg.com/images/i/182196556219-0-1/s-l1001.jpg",
