Products Resource

The Products resource lets you manage product offerings in your Microsoft Merchant Center store (MMC). For information about using the Products resources, see Managing your Products. For examples that show how to add, delete, and get products, see Code Examples.

Base URI

The following is the base URI that you append the templates to.

https://content.api.bingads.microsoft.com/shopping/v9.1/bmc/

Templates

To create the endpoints used to manage your product offerings, append the appropriate template to the base URI.

Template HTTP Verb Description Resource
{mmcMerchantId}/products/batch POST Use to perform multiple inserts (updates), gets, and deletes in a single request. The batch must not include multiple actions for the same product. For example, the request must not try to insert and delete the same product.

Set {mmcMerchantId} to the MMC store ID.
Request: Batch
Response: Batch
{mmcMerchantId}/products/{productUniqueId} DELETE Use to delete a single product offering from the store.

Set {mmcMerchantId} to the MMC store ID.

Set {productUniqueId} to the fully qualified product ID (for example, Online:en:US:Sku123).

If you inserted a product with the same ID in multiple catalogs, it's deleted from all of them.

Deleted products can take up to 12 hours to stop delivering. We recommend updating the product availability to “out of stock” prior to deleting.
Request: N/A
Response: N/A
{mmcMerchantId}/products/{productUniqueId} GET Use to get a single product offering from the store.

Set {mmcMerchantId} to the MMC store ID.

Set {productUniqueId} to the fully qualified product ID (for example, Online:en:US:Sku123).

If you inserted a product with the same ID in multiple catalogs, the service returns only one of them, and which one is undetermined.
Request: N/A
Response: Product
{mmcMerchantId}/products GET Use to get a list of products in the store.

Set {mmcMerchantId} to the MMC store ID.
Request: N/A
Response: Products
{mmcMerchantId}/products POST Use to insert (update) a single product offering in the store.

If the product doesn't exist, it's added; otherwise, the product is updated. Because updates overwrite the current offering, you must include all fields that make up the offer.

To insert the offer into a specific catalog, specify the bmc-catalog-id query parameter; otherwise, the product is inserted into the store's default catalog.

Set {mmcMerchantId} to the MMC store ID.

Note that because Get/List and Delete requests act against the store and not a specific catalog, you should not insert a product with the same channel, contentLanguage, targetCountry, and offerId into multiple catalogs.
Request: Product
Response: Product

Query parameters

The endpoints may include the following query parameters.

Parameter Description
alt Optional. Use to specify the type of content that's used in the request and response. The possible values are json and xml. The default is json.
bmc-catalog-id Optional. Use to specify the catalog to insert (update) product offerings into.

Use this parameter if your store contains multiple catalogs. If you do not specify this parameter, the product is inserted into the store's default catalog.

This parameter is only used to insert product offerings. This parameter is ignored for Get, List, and Delete requests because they operate across catalogs.
dry-run Optional. Use when debugging your application to test calls. Calls that include this parameter won't affect production data (products are not inserted or deleted); however, the response will contain any errors that the call generates.

Consider the following limitations when using this parameter.
  • Insert operations don't return IDs.
  • The service doesn't generate or return secondary error messages such as data quality, editorial issues, and database-related validations.
For more information about testing your application, see Sandbox.
max-results Optional. Use to specify the maximum number of items to return in a List request. The maximum value that you may specify is 250. The default is 25.
start-token Optional. Use to page through a store's list of products. The token identifies the next page of products to return in a List request. Do not specify this parameter in the first List request. If the catalog contains more than the requested number of products (see the max-results query parameter), the response includes the nextPageToken field (see Products), which contains the token value that you use in the next List request.

Headers

The following are the request and response headers.

Header Description
AuthenticationToken Request header.

Set this header to an OAuth access token. For information about getting an access token, see Authenticating your credentials.
Content-Location Response header.

A URL that identifies the store that the product was inserted into. This header is included in the response of an Insert request.
Content-Type Request and response header.

The type of content in the body of the request or response. For POSTs, if you use JSON, set this header to application/json. Otherwise, if you use XML, set this header to application/xml.
CustomerAccountId Request header.

The account ID of any account that you manage on behalf of the customer specified in the CustomerId header. It doesn't matter which account you specify. Specify this header only if you manage an account on behalf of the customer.
CustomerId Request header.

The customer ID of the customer whose store you manage. Specify this header only if you manage the store on behalf of the customer. If you set this header, you must also set the CustomerAccountId header.
DeveloperToken Request header.

The client application's developer token. Each request must include this header. For information about getting a token, see Do you have your Microsoft Advertising credentials and developer token?
Location Response header.

A URL that identifies the store that the product was inserted into. This header is included in the response of an Insert request.
WebRequestActivityId Response header.

The ID of the log entry that contains details of the request. You should always capture this ID if an error occurs. If you are not able to determine and resolve the issue, include this ID along with the other information that you provide the Support team.

Request and response objects

The following are the request and response objects used by the API.

Each object defines the JSON key name and XML element name that you use depending on the content type that you specified for the request.

expirationDate

<expiration_date>
The UTC date and time that specifies when the product will expire.

If you do not specify an expiration date, the product expires 30 days from the date and time that you add or update the product (the date and time are based on the Microsoft server's timezone).

Use this field to specify an expiration date that's less than 30 days from today.

Your expiration date should always include the time component and specify the timezone or offset information. If it doesn't, the API will try to determine the timezone by using targetCountry. For countries or regions with multiple time zones, the API determines the timezone to use. For example, if the country is US, the API will use pacific standard time (PST).

You should track products that are nearing expiration and before they expire either update their expiration date or simply update the product (you do not have to update any of the product's fields) which will automatically extend the expiration date another 30 days. If you explicitly set the expiration date, you must set a new expiration date yourself; updating the product will not automatically extend the expiration date another 30 days in this case.

All IDs for a market (see contentLanguage and targetCountry) must be unique. For example, within a market, you may not use PROMO1 and promo1, but you could use PROMO1 in the en-US market and promo1 in the en-GB market. You may specify the same unique promotion ID on one or more products.

Microsoft promotes the product if the ID that you specify matches a promotion ID in your Promotions feed (for the same target country). The IDs match only if the casing is the same. For example, the IDs match if the product's ID is PROMO1 and the feed's ID is PROMO1, but they do not match if the feed's ID is Promo1.

To ensure that the product is not accidentally promoted in the future, you should remove the IDs of promotions that have ended. Although the ID cannot be used again in a Promotions feed for 6 months after the promotion ends, if the ID is reused in another promotion after that, the product will be promoted.
String No
salePrice

<sale_price>
The item's sale price. The sale price must be in the range 0.01 (1 cent) through 10000000.00 (10 million).

For sale items, set both the sale price and sale effective date (see salePriceEffectiveDate). If you set the sale price but not the sale price effective date, the sale price will continue to be used until the product expires or you set an effective date.

If the following conditions are met, you may set the sale price to 0.0 (zero).

1. The googleProductCategory field is set to one of the following categories:
    - Electronics > Communications > Telephony > Mobile Phones
    - Electronics > Computers > Tablet Computers
