Call Reference Version 585

See the eBay Partner Network. eBay uses the specified details to build a View Item URL string in the response that includes your affiliate tracking information in the correct format. When a user clicks through the URL to eBay and performs certain tasks, you may get a commission (see the URL above). Only applicable when IncludeItemArray is specified (because the View Item URL is only returned in item information, not in product information).

Specifies whether or not to remove duplicate items from search results. When set to true, and there are duplicate items for an item in the search results, the subsequent duplicates will not appear in the results. Item listings are considered duplicates in the following conditions:

• Items are listed by the same seller
• Items have exactly the same item title
• Items have similar listing formats
• Auctions: Auction Items, Auction BIN items, Multi-Quantity Auctions, and Multi-Quantity Auctions BIN items
• Fixed Price: Fixed Price, Multi-quantity Fixed Price, Fixed Price with Best Offer, and Store Inventory Format items
• Classified Ads

For Auctions, items must also have the same price and number of bids to be considered duplicates.
Filtering of duplicate item listings is not supported on all sites. For GetProducts, this filter only works when IncludeItemArray is set to true.

If true, the response includes up to 5 buying guides (if any) for the product specified in ExternalProductID or ProductReferenceID. Not applicable with QueryKeywords.

If true, the response includes a histogram that lists the number of matching products found and the domains in which they were found. (A domain is like a high-level category.) Including the histogram can affect the call's performance. You may see significantly slower response times when many matching products are found.

If true, the response includes items (if any) that match the product specified in ExternalProductID or ProductReferenceID. Not applicable with QueryKeywords.

If true, the response includes up to 20 reviews (if any) for the product specified in ExternalProductID or ProductReferenceID. The reviews are sorted by most helpful (most votes) first. When you include review details, please note that response times may be longer than 60 seconds. Not applicable with QueryKeywords.

Contains the fields that form the search query. You can query against keywords, an eBay product reference ID (not to be confused with an eBay product ID), or external product ID (like an ISBN).

Sorts the list of products returned. This is mostly only useful with QueryKeywords. (When you use ExternalProductID or ProductReferenceID, eBay usually only returns one product.)
